Started by Rosie Webber 2 years, 1 month ago
We are a Women’s only gym and have been operating since October 2022.

We are going from strength to strength, and we need a bigger premises. The premises we have in mind for our expansion is 5 feet away from our present gym, so location of business should not be an issue.

We want and need a bigger premises as fitness for women is expanding. We want to run more classes and have a Cafe and Beauty department which will create more jobs for the local area.

We also want to provide a free Crèche for women with children, so childcare will not be an issue.

This petition is against our local council to allow us to take over the building.

I have spent my mornings in meetings with local planners trying to explain why this expansion is about more than just square footage for our members. Hearing how many women depend on this space for their physical health keeps me pushing forward even when the council makes it difficult.

June 1, 2024

Seeing this kind of momentum behind our expansion plan leaves me speechless. This outpouring proves that our community truly needs the space for childcare and wellness that we are working so hard to build.

I’ve only been a member here for about 6 weeks and only just starting my journey with Rosie. I’m already doing things in this gym which I’ve been too scared to do in any other gym than I’ve been a member off in the last 20 years as an adult. I’m excited to see where my journey goes with Rosie at Webber’s in terms of weight loss, strength, confidence and general happiness.

Need to expand and a place where women can train in a comfortable environment away from the men. Would be lovely to have a cafe so can stay longer and also might have a treatment after training.

THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH GYMS IN BENFLEET AREA AND NONE FOR JUST WOMEN. THERE IS ONE GYM ON HIGH ROAD THAT IS TINY. WEBBERS GYM OFFERS MORE EQUIPMENT AND WOULD BE EVEN BETTER IF IT EXPANDS.

There is nowhere else like Webbers in the surrounding area. A safe space for women. To deny them expanding and providing more jobs for women in the local area, would be outrageous. Please agree to Webbers expanding, creating more jobs for local women and to continue to provide a safe space for women of all ages.

Such a great place and could be even much better if we had a bigger premises so many from our local community use this wonderful place and the free crèche is perfect

Having the safety of a woman’s only gym that’s local to me is something I can only dream of. My family all use the gym and it’s created a lot of better life styles, Rosie is so dedicated to what she does and is determined to better the lifestyle of everyone she meets. Wanting to expand to better it is the best idea I’ve ever had. Plus seeing what a state that area was before what an improvement to the area!

Health and fitness is a choice that should be given and the opportunity to encourage more people in our communities to get fit
