Please use our hygiene stations!
You'll see sanitising stations throughout the building, so it is easy to regularly clean your hands when you visit. Please do so before you enter ASV, to help keep you and others safe.
Everyone is advised to keep 2 metres apart
At over 800sq metres our huge gym means we have been able to create all the space you need to work out, while keeping a safe distance from others. Similarly, our large pools, full size indoor pitch, running tracks and vast sports hall means we can welcome you to ASV with confidence. Look for the signs around the facility to guide you.
Our capacity has been reduced
To help keep you safe we will be reducing capacity and limiting the number of visitors to ASV at any one time. We will carefully control the number of people in all areas to make sure everyone can practice social distancing and has an enjoyable visit.
We've upped our cleaning frequency
We’ve put in new cleaning procedures which means we will be sanitising equipment throughout the day and cleaning the facility every night. You will also find plenty of wipes available, so you can clean your kit for added peace of mind.
There's plenty of space between our equipment and machines!
We have reconfigured our equipment and created plenty of space so that you can exercise, train and work out in the space you need. We have clearly marked out the different areas, including within the gym, so you can find your way around safely. We will also be controlling numbers, so that you will feel comfortable and we are not too busy.
One way system
You will see plenty of signage and markers to help keep you heading in the right direction when you are moving around ASV. By following these simple guides and staying apart you will be helping to keep yourself and others safe.
