Keep moving, feel better, stay connected
In a rural area where options can be limited, Bell View offers something genuinely unusual: a full range of health and wellbeing activities open to everyone in the community — no referral needed, and no charge to join.
From gentle seated exercise to karate, from mindfulness to reflexology, the offer spans both physical activity and therapeutic wellbeing. The gym is open to all after a free induction. Everything else runs as regular classes and sessions throughout the week.
Whatever you're looking for — keeping active, building strength, managing stress, or simply making time for yourself — there's likely something here that fits.
What we offer
A quiet space to keep active
Our mini gym is tucked away in the centre and available to anyone who has had a free induction. It's not a commercial gym — it's a friendly, low-pressure space with good equipment and no intimidation factor.
We're particularly keen to welcome supervised groups and would love to host sessions for young people. If you'd like to arrange access for a group, just get in touch.
All ages, all abilities
Everything we do is open to the whole community — not just people who already use the centre. Children and adults train together in our karate class; the gym welcomes everyone from 16 upwards; and our wellbeing sessions attract people who've never tried anything like them before.
If you're not sure where to start, just get in touch. We'll point you in the right direction and make sure you feel welcome from the first session.
We'd love to hear it
We have a table tennis table, a well-equipped hall, and a genuine enthusiasm for trying new things. If there's an activity you'd like to see in Belford or your village — or if you run something you'd like to bring to the centre — just get in touch. We've said yes to a lot of things over the years.
