Cool Summers, Warm Winters

About

Together we built the Chapel Gym. Together we’ll make it fit for the future.

Although the Chapel Gym is loved by its members, the building is difficult (and ridiculously expensive) to heat in winter and can become uncomfortably hot in summer. This affects the experience of members, staff and volunteers.  This recent heatwave has reinforced how important it is to resolve the cooling and heating in the Chapel Gym. 

We have obtained a quote for air source heat pumps, which would provide both heating and cooling. This would make the gym more comfortable, more energy-efficient and more usable throughout the year.  This is not a nice-to-have. The Chapel Gym needs to remain comfortable, welcoming, safe and sustainable for everyone who uses it now and for future generations.

Good heating is particularly important in winter, when exercising in a cold space can increase the risk of injury. A current survey of Chapel Gym members says resoundingly that members No. 1 priority for improvement is temperature control. Let's make this happen!

We are thrilled to have met our target for heating and air conditioning for the Gym building. Any surplus funds will go towards repairs to our main chapel window.

Thanks so much for the support.

We welcome people of all abilities and levels of fitness.
