Welcome to Thames Valley Children's Centre Adapted Fitness Centre!
We hope to: Introduce TVCC youth to a healthy lifestyle of physical activity, exercise and wellbeing through fitness
We offer:
Our staff work in partnership to support clients who want to work out at TVCC, in their schools and in their communities.
Our equipment includes:
Treadmill - has 2 levels of extended handlebars for ease of getting on and off. Other features include a slow walking speed; it moves as slow as 0.1 km/hr and can also go in reverse.
Recumbent bike and recumbent stepper - have seats that swivel for independence in transferring on and off. For both these pieces, clients may also choose to exercise from their own wheelchair, as the seats are also removable.
