Here at Fit 4 Life, we believe that fitness really is for everyone. Just because you're 'not the sporty type', or 'not as young as you used to be', or are even suffering from ill health, doesn't mean you can't enjoy the benefits of some gentle exercise. We have created a friendly and supportive environment where people can come and exercise under the supervision of our highly qualified team of Instructors.

About Us
Report
Fit 4 Life was developed from a charity called 'The Heart Workshop', which was managed by Cumbria Council for Voluntary Service (CCVS), and based in a Community Resource Centre in Maryport, Cumbria.
It was the role of the staff at the Heart Workshop (including the now Fit 4 Life Manager), to set up and run healthy living initiatives for local people, especially those with Heart Disease.
We aim to improve the health and well-being of all local people, especially those who have, or who are at risk of developing chronic diseases such as Coronary Heart Disease, Diabetes and Stroke.
