York St John University is on the Mark for inclusive fitness

York St John University’s Health and Fitness Suite, managed by YSJActive, has been accredited under the Inclusive Fitness Initiative (IFI) for its commitment to offering opportunities that enable disabled people to become physically active.

The IFI is a programme that ensures facilities meet the required standards of equipment, access, qualified staff and equality.

Richard Smith, YSJActive Development Officer, said: “Our team has been working hard on everything from access to staff training and equipment, so it’s fantastic to be recognised with the IFI Mark. Hopefully we can encourage even more students, staff and members of the local community to get active no matter what their disability.”

YSJActive provides an exciting range of opportunities for sport, exercise and recreation. To find out more please call 01904 876300 to speak to one of the team.
