A FITNESS and childcare centre is getting set to open its second premises in west Dorset next month.

iOme Fitness will open the doors to its second facility at the Pineapple Business

Park in Salway Ash in July, following on from the success of it's first centre which opened in Drayton last August.

Founder of the company, Charlie Fardon, has been overwhelmed by the local support iOme has received so far.

He said: "We’ve been amazed by just how many people love our fitness courses.

"It’s completely different to a normal gym. We run six week courses instead of a monthly rolling membership. Although it’s a different set up, it works because it gives our course members a clear beginning and end so they’re always able to measure their success over a six week period."

iOme Fitness offers small group personal training to its course participants. With only five spaces available for each course, members are individually supported with all aspects of health and fitness including posture, joint stability, improving fitness levels and weight loss.

Charlie and his team, Megan and Edward, are now busy planning for their next summer youth camp they also run from their indoor garden studios.

During the summer holidays both studios will convert to a childcare facility from the hours of 8.30am until 6pm where children aged 8 to 13 are encouraged to keep active with indoor and outdoor sports as well as arts, crafts, drama and dance activities.

During iOme’s first youth camp, the company welcomed more than 30 children from the local area.

Mr Mardon added: "The children have great fun at youth camp.

"They’re kept busy with a choice of four activities every day and have opportunity to explore the great countryside with activities such as fishing, den building and nature trails."
