A calisthenics set-up for the field

An outdoor calisthenics rig - bars, rings and frames - free to use for everyone. We're looking for people to help plan it and raise the money.

Type Bigger project
Effort Major — multi-day or specialist

An outdoor calisthenics set-up - pull-up and dip bars, rings, and frames for bodyweight training - would give the site something for teenagers and adults that costs nothing to use and is open all hours.

Where we've got to

This is at the earliest stage. Before anything can be ordered we need to work out where it would go, what a good set-up actually costs to buy and install, what safety surfacing is needed underneath, and where the money comes from.

What would help

If you've raised money for something like this before, know your way around a grant application, or have experience of outdoor gym equipment and what lasts, we'd love to hear from you. Equally, if you'd just use it and want to help make the case, put your hand up.

Cost to be confirmed.

What would help

  • Someone to lead the fundraising
  • Help with grant applications
  • Advice on equipment, siting and safety surfacing
  • Quotes from suppliers and installers
