PARKWOOD Leisure and its sub-contractor Lex Leisure have announce the launch of The Accessible Subscription at Hengrove Park Leisure Centre – a flexible membership option designed to offer greater ease and freedom for individuals with registered disabilities, as part of their ongoing commitment to making physical activity accessible for the whole community.
A new pilot initiative, The Accessible Subscription will introduce a more adaptable approach to membership. Offering a flexible, two or four-week subscription, it provides full access to the centre’s facilities without the pressure of ongoing monthly commitments.
Recognising that health conditions fluctuate, the membership also allows individuals to freeze at no cost, providing vital flexibility for periods of illness, medical appointments or recovery.
“We have a mission to create truly inclusive spaces for all, but accessibility isn’t just about physical infrastructure, it’s about creating opportunities that genuinely support people’s individual needs,” said Glen Hall, managing director at Parkwood Leisure.
“We are committed to ensuring that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, can access and enjoy the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle.
“Through targeted initiatives like the Accessible Subscription and ongoing investment in accessible technology, we are making this ambition a reality.”
Alongside this new membership, Hengrove Park Leisure Centre continues to enhance access with the introduction of the Poolpod – a specialist pool lift designed to provide a dignified and independent swimming experience for individuals with mobility challenges.
