Danny Shaw-Senior Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist, explained

'We are very excited about our new equipment. We will be able to improve the service we offer to our patients by optimising their training loads, ensuring that exercise is functional and promoting gym use for better health. There is a lot of fun stuff to use which will improve patient satisfaction and outcomes'. 

Patient Zion Dapaah said

This fantastic equipment allows me to do a wider variety of exercises which are helping with my rehabilitation from my injury. 

We are delighted to be supporting this initiative and are grateful to the Friends of Lewisham Hospital for their support.
