YOUR Personal Training is embarking on a remarkable partnership with Doing Our Bit—a transformative fitness, health, and wellness platform dedicated to serving the invaluable NHS and Social Care staff.

In these challenging times, our healthcare have been working tirelessly to keep us safe and healthy. Doing Our Bit began as a passion project during the Covid-19 pandemic when Julie Davis, Deputy Chief Operating Officer at the Clinical Research Network West Midlands, wanted to support her 190 colleagues by providing them with free access to fitness sessions. Witnessing the positive impact of this initiative, the Royal Wolverhampton NHS Trust embraced the idea and extended the gift of wellness to their 10,000 staff members.

With the growing demand and a vision to make a broader impact, Julie needed a larger platform and additional expertise. This is where Founding partners UK Active, Study Active, and Fibodo stepped in, providing unwavering support to help turn her vision into a reality. Today, Doing Our Bit has evolved into a fully-fledged Not-For-Profit company, boasting a remarkable website, an empowering App, and a rapidly expanding user base.

Doing Our Bit stands tall as a multi-award-winning platform, driven by best-in-class technology and thoughtfully curated content. It offers a diverse array of free-to-participate, 24/7 fitness, health, and wellness options, including on-demand video workouts, in-person exercise and wellness classes, group activities, training buddies, and community events.

The overarching aim of Doing Our Bit is to bring free health and wellness sessions within 10 minutes of any home address in the UK—specially tailored to the needs of our cherished NHS and Social Care workers.

These incredible sessions are primarily provided by the UK's leading Leisure, Gym, and Fitness Professionals, all of whom share the desire to express their appreciation for the tireless efforts of our healthcare heroes.
And now, we at YOUR Personal Training are beyond excited to be part of this groundbreaking initiative. We firmly believe in the power of fitness to transform lives, and what better way to give back than by supporting the wellbeing of those who selflessly care for our nation?

As Aaron McCulloch, YOUR Personal Training's Managing Director, puts it, "We have the privilege of witnessing the positive impact of fitness on countless lives. It's an honour to extend this transformative gift to those who go above and beyond to safeguard our health and happiness."

Through this partnership, YOUR Personal Training, along with our esteemed Personal Trainers, will join hands with Doing Our Bit to make their dream a reality: offering fitness and wellness resources to every NHS and Social Care worker across the UK.

We invite all YOUR PT Trainers and fitness professionals to join us in this noble cause. By offering just 1-2 spaces in your existing offering of small or large group training, free of charge for NHS and Social Care staff, we can collectively make a resounding impact on the wellbeing of those who dedicate their lives to our communities. As the saying goes, "Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much."
