Making gyms and pools more accessible

Making gyms and pools more accessible back to News

This Girl Can’s survey has led to some key recommendations
This Girl Can has revealed the things women want to see in gyms and pools to help them go back in greater numbers. 

The campaign has published the results of a new survey which showed as many as 87% of the This Girl Can community feel safe to return with anti-coronavirus (Covid-19) measures in place. 

However, while gyms have clearly done an excellent job in supporting and helping people to feel safe, just 27% of women have visited a gym since they were allowed to reopen, with even fewer having visited a swimming pool (13%).

The survey found women would feel more comfortable going to gyms and pools if small things, such as hooks by the pool to hang towels and a reduction in full-length mirrors, were introduced.
