Inclusive Fitness Zone: Your one stop shop for inclusion!

The Inclusive Fitness Zone is a unique show feature at Leisure Industry Week 2009, developed by the Inclusive Fitness Initiative (IFI) to provide you with a one-stop shop for advice and guidance about inclusive fitness.

Amy Smith, IFI Activator and Marketing Manager explains;

‘This is an ideal opportunity for representatives from across the fitness industry to come and explore the principles of inclusive fitness and to see a selection of accredited equipment. We have already worked with over five hundred different facilities within both the public and private sector, from schools and universities to leisure centres and Paralympic Training Venues and we are keen to support even more facilities to become inclusive in the run up to 2012.’

Leisure Industry Week is running from 22-24 September 2009 at the NEC, Birmingham. It’s the show that attracts thousands of leisure professionals and over 350 key industry suppliers. Highlights include live demos, education and conferences, as well as high profile industry speakers.
