North Mid staff are set to enjoy a newly renovated outdoor wellbeing and fitness area, thanks to the Royal Free Charity. 

Located in the Pymmes building courtyard, the gym includes fitness equipment like a boxing bag, chin-up bars and a table tennis table. The charity will also use the space to deliver a range of activities when the weather allows, including yoga and Zumba sessions.
