Manchester United legend Paul Scholes has joined forces with his children Arron and Alicia to launch a new state-of-the-art gym in his hometown of Oldham. The Scholes family have invested £500,000 on the huge 10,000 sq ft development on Lees Road in the town.
Designed by award-winning designer Mark Mason, Reds and England great Paul said the idea for a gym was born in lockdown when his fitness-fanatic family all took to working out in their back garden in Oldham. They decided to look for a location for a gym that would be welcoming to those keen to get fit as well as those wanting to really push their fitness levels with a series of state-of-the-art machines and fit classes.
The gym is being run by the Scholes siblings - 22-year-old Arron, a Level 3 qualified personal trainer, and 20-year-old sister Alicia, a part-time professional athlete playing netball for London Pulse and Level 3 qualified personal trainer. It is being billed as a "gym like no other", with stylish interiors combined with vast windows and soft lighting providing a warm and inviting feel as well as a coffee shop area at the front of the building.
