The management team confirmed today that they are moving forward with the on-site gym project. Thank you to the 156 of you who spoke up and listed your companies to prove the demand was real. Keep an eye on your email for updates regarding the construction schedule and grand opening.

Final supporters
As you may know already the original plans of Romford ROC included an on-site gym, however due to financial constraints at the time, this fell to the way side and has since been forgotten.
Until now!
This petition is to fully gauge how many people across all businesses currently residing at the ROC are interested in having access to on site gym facilities.
When signing, please include the company you work for within the comments section.
Thank you for your support

I am gathering all the company names from the comments to take directly to building management. Send a quick email to your office manager today to let them know you support this gym integration. We need the businesses themselves to realize that their employees want this space utilized.

The response from across the ROC has been overwhelming and shows that we are ready for on-site gym facilities. Please send the link to your office group chat and ask your coworkers to sign while adding their company name. We need to keep this energy high so we can take these results directly to management.

A fantastic idea for health and well being. A lot of people involved in shift work of 12 hours where they are behind a desk for the majority of it. At a time of mental health awareness the benefits of endorphin release from exercise is also to be noted alongside the physical benefits. (Network Rail)
MTR Crossrail If companies based at the ROC are genuine about improving the well-being of their employees then this should have their full support to ensure staff get a great facility to enable them to optimise their health (given the inherent detriment to employees health from doing shift work).
Network Rail - we were promised a gym when we relocated from Shoreditch, so it would be great to see this come to fruition. As many of the roles within the Control are sedentary this will help immeasurably.
Other ROCs have Gyms, the one on Wessex has a personal trainer available from 0700 to 1900 Monday to Friday. This ROC should make this available to all. It promotes a healthy lifestyle and can help alleviate stress in a highly pressurised work environment.
I work for MTR Crossrail. It would be great to have an on-site gym at the Romford ROC. It would be a fantastic addition to the already-good building facilities, as well as an enabler to the good health and overall motivation of employees.

Network Rail Signalling section supervisor. I try to use my gym three times a week, but with my current work load and commute this is hard, if there was a gym at work I would definitely utilise it.
