Quincy Thomas received the Scroll of Recognition for Outstanding Services to the Community.
Quincy has been awarded a Scroll of Recognition for Outstanding Services to the Community in recognition of efforts to improve accessibility and inclusion within local leisure facilities.
Quincy has been a strong advocate for sensory-inclusive and SEND-inclusive gym environments, working closely with community organisations and leisure providers to promote more accessible fitness spaces for people with additional needs.
Among the initiatives championed by Quincywas the introduction of quiet gym sessions at Better Finchley Lido Leisure Centre and Barnet Copthall Leisure Centre. The quieter sessions were designed to create a calmer and more comfortable environment for individuals who may find standard gym settings overwhelming, including members of the autistic community and those with sensory sensitivities.
The sessions have been widely welcomed by residents and have become a valued part of the community, with many users praising the inclusive atmosphere and improved accessibility.
The Scroll of Recognition highlights Quincy's continued commitment to ensuring fitness and wellbeing opportunities are open and accessible to everyone in the community.
A huge congratulations to Quincy for his hard work and ongoing support for those in the community. We look forward to the ongoing partnership with Quincy
