Following feedback from residents in the Barn Elm Southside consultation run earlier this year, Richmond Council has installed various pieces of static and moving gym equipment.

The following equipment has been installed:

  • Multi-purpose fitness frame
  • Electric-charging bike
  • Arm bike
  • Tai Chi wheels
  • Standard cycle
  • Leg press
  • Chest press/lat pull combination
  • Cross rider duo

One of the machines includes a phone-charging spin bike the council say.

Richmond Council comment: "We would like to thank everyone who took the time to provide responses.

"The feedback collected has contributed to making changes and improving our parks and open spaces, making Richmond upon Thames an even nicer and more inclusive place."
