Looking for a fun activity you can do whatever your age, however much free time you have and together with your family and friends too?

The 2023 mantra for 3-1-5 Health Club in Lancaster goes beyond the usual sports message. Yes, they want to help people achieve their fitness goals, but they want to make it as inclusive as possible, from offering classes for toddlers and 90-year-olds, at times to suit you, plus family-inclusive sessions and special value for money deals to help manage the cost-of-living crisis.

Sean Thornton, owner at the Lancaster health club, said he is keen to offer a service that doesn’t exclude anyone.

“I think family fitness is very important,” he says. “The habits we learn when we are younger stay with us, which is why we have various classes etc that are suitable for all ages. We’ve had toddlers exercising in fit mums, and people up to the age of 90 working out with us.”

Ways to save money

And, as the cost-of-living crisis deepens, 3-1-5 has two special ways to save you money.

First is the January offer – join before January 31 and there’s 15 per cent off selected annual memberships (terms and conditions apply) and no joining fee.

The second fun event is the open weekend, when absolutely every gym session and class is totally free. This gives people who’ve never exercised with them before the chance to see the totally refurbished gym and meet the team, but also adds another element for members.

Sean explains: “Even if you are already one of our members, the open weekend gives you the chance to bring a family member or friend along for nothing, to let them see what all the fun is about. Of course, if they then want to join you, the January offer is available to them until the end of the month.”

As the open weekend is expected to be popular, members and those looking to try it for free are strongly advised to pre-book their slot.
