New OneGym site to open in Newcastle afer £1.2m investment
A gym company is to make its Newcastle city centre debut with a new £1.2m site.
Located at Elden Garden, the 21,000 sq ft site will be OneGym's 14th location and its third new opening in the last year.
The company's director said the opening is a "huge moment".
It will create 15 jobs and has been fully fitted with premium equipment, including plate-loaded machines from Panatta, state-of-the-art cardio kit, free weights, a dedicated functional training space and saunas.
Members will benefit from 24/7 access, flexible zero-contract memberships and no joining fee, alongside a timetable of classes.
Paul Pearson, director, said: "Opening in Eldon Garden is a huge moment for us. Newcastle city centre has always been a key location for OneGym, and this investment reflects our confidence in the city.
“This is our 14th site and our third in the last 12 months, which shows the strength of our model. We’re creating 15 new jobs and delivering a premium gym experience right in the heart of Newcastle - high-spec equipment like Panatta, accessible pricing and 24/7 access.
“We can’t wait to welcome members through the doors."
The gym officially opens on Saturday, March 7, with open days taking place ahead of launch.
