A HUDDERSFIELD gym is offering range of health and fitness activities for disadvantaged groups.

Communities in Action at 535 Blackmoorfoot Road, Crosland Moor, has an over-55s fitness class - and the oldest member is 86!

The gym, which is open to the public, also runs women-only groups, sessions for the unemployed, a junior gym and a scheme for people wanting to shed some weight.

The not-for-profit gym, sponsored by lottery and council cash, received money from Kirklees Neighbourhood Renewal.

Project manager Aaron Taylor said: "The over-55s group is brilliant. It's a social thing as much as anything."

Each session costs £1 and annual membership is £150.
