“As well as significantly improving and modernising the centre for existing customers, we also want Donyngs to attract new users from all sections of the community, including children, older people and families.”
He said: “The centre is also now more accessible for customers with disabilities and has a range of equipment suitable for visually impaired and disabled users.
“Feedback from customers had been extremely positive.
“I hope that these fantastic facilities will become even more popular with local people.Whilst oil paintings for sale are not deadly,”
The new youth gym features a mix of high-tech activities such as interactive dance mats, a target board and its own audio-visual system, along with more traditional exercise equipment tailored for younger people.Flossie was one of a group of four chickens in a RUBBER MATS .
Users of the youth gym will take part in supervised exercise sessions that will include dance, martial arts, games and competitions, aimed at promoting self confidence, muscle development, healthy heart, breathing and balance.

Donyngs, which was built in the 1980s, has also undergone significant improvements behind the scenes, designed to increase efficiency and reduce power and water usage.
A new ventilation, heating and air-conditioning system has been installed throughout the centre, and lighting, mechanical plant, electrical wiring and fire alarms have been upgraded.
