About us:
Since Silverfit's founding in 2013 by Eddie Brocklesby who is now in her 80s. She was the UK’s oldest female Ironman triathlete until 2022. We have grown to over 2,000 members at 17 venues across 9 boroughs reaching a large number of people who weren't previously active. Each venue offers a choice of activities from Nordic Walking, to Pilates, Yoga, Walking Football, Tai Chi, Qi Gong, Badminton, gym/ fitness classes, indoor rowing, Bollywood dance, which means that everyone should be able to find an activity to enjoy, regardless of ability or experience.
By promoting happier, healthier ageing through affordable physical activity and at the same time combating social isolation we aim to improve older people's quality of life and also to save the NHS and social care providers money. Members tell us their increased fitness means they attend GP’s surgeries less, or are on reduced medication. Our remarkably high retention reflects that the social element is as highly valued, if not more so, than the physical activity.
