We also want to do things right. This ethos means we have pioneered greener, safer and stronger outdoor gyms than any other. We pioneered safety standards making our outdoor fitness equipment similar to playgrounds as well as inclusivity standards making our outdoor gyms accessible to people with disabilities.

One of these innovations is the TGO PowerSmart range, which transforms human energy into electricity that can be used for charging devices and can even be stored for later.

Consultation

TGO are experts in outdoor gym solutions and we work closely with our customers to ensure that they get the best equipment for their budget and their customers. Our expert staff listens to the needs of each and every outdoor gym requirement, large or small, to deliver the best results possible.

Gym Design

A large part of the solutions we provide is listening to our customer's needs. We are able to be highly responsive to those needs through our in-house design team. We create visualisations of gyms that help create the vision. Having the resource in-house means we can consult with clients and easily ‘tweak’ things to get them right. We have invested in Augmented Reality too. This helps visualise our pre-built gym packages in situ. All you have to do is go to our packages and tap the AR button , point the camera at where you’d like to see the gym on site and the software will do the rest.

Project Management

Once we have designed a gym, or a pre-built package has been ordered, we went into the project management phase of the order. We work with stock, manufacturing, QC and logistics to work to keen lead times. Our team communicate with customers to ensure each outdoor gym, be it large or small, is delivered hassle-free and in a timely manner. We will also help to launch gyms where required and can provide activation services to enable it.

Activation

TGO has a complete service for activating theirs (and others) gyms. These include but are not limited to launch activities, their marketing, group exercise, movement medicine, activation screens, and community engagement measuring. Please see our dedicated wesite here to read all about it and our successes.

Maintenance

Our British made outdoor fitness equipment is built to last and has some of the longest warranties in the industry. However, things do go wrong. Less so if equipment is maintained properly. We provide additional services to suit varied budgets to help keep things running.

Vision

A sustainable planet with healthy forests, seas and natural habitats thriving alongside happy and healthy humans.

50,000 trees planted

Now more than ever, we need to look after our health and protect nature - we believe the two go hand in hand. Since May 2012, TGO has sponsored 50,000 trees in the NHS Forest, at least one tree for every piece of outdoor gym equipment sold. 

To mark NHS Sustainability Day 2020, we planted a batch of 700 trees at NHS Forest sites including Alder Hey Children’s Hospital in Liverpool, Bethlem Royal Hospital in South East London, Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor. In spring 2020, some silver birches are being planted in our Movement is Medicine outdoor gym at St Thomas's Hospital in Westminster, as a tribute to TGO's late chairman and great Dad, John Tarrant. 

Our longstanding partnership with the Centre for Sustainable Healthcare is one we very much look forward to growing in the 20s.

Serving communities of 7.5 million people

With 1500 TGO gyms installed in the UK and worldwide, we estimate there are 7.5 million people who can access and benefit from a free TGO gym, right on their doorstep. From villages to urban metropolises, hospital grounds to university campuses, large parks to housing estates, our conservative estimate is that an average of 5000 people live, work or study within one kilometre of each TGO gym. And now with TGO Smart, our unique technology that measures TGO gym hits, our ability to measure participation at outdoor gyms is second to none.
