We’re looking for people with an interest in physical activity and health to help support a series of opportunities offered through the Active Healthy Living project.

Outdoor gym equipment survey

The Active Healthy Living project team at Loughborough University are running drop-in sessions at community venues around Loughborough Town to provide residents with the opportunity to complete a survey to share their thoughts and opinions on the new outdoor gym equipment installed on Southfields Park and the Bell Foundry Estate.

Anyone aged 18 and over who lives in Loughborough and is able to understand the survey questions can take part, whether you have used the new outdoor gym equipment yet or not.

  • Refreshments will be provided during the drop-in sessions, as well as a £10 Love2Shop voucher as a thank you for taking part.
  • The survey should take around 10-20 minutes to complete and can be completed in paper copy or digital formats.

The drop-in sessions are running from Monday 24 November to Friday 5 December, 2025. If you would like to attend one of the drop-in sessions, please see the schedule.
