Tandy Health and Fitness Expands with New Gym Space in Nantwich

We are thrilled to announce that Tandy Health and Fitness, founded by Rob Tandy, has successfully secured a £23,000 Start Up Loan through GC Business Finance. This funding has enabled them to expand their facilities, acquire new equipment, and enhance the services they offer to clients.

Located in Nantwich, the gym started as a personal and small group training studio, specialising in strength training, circuit training, and personal training. With the new funding, they have been able to grow their offerings to include a Pilates course, led by a dedicated instructor.

In addition to our expanded fitness services, the new gym space also features a treatment room for sports massage and physiotherapy. This space is available for rent to practitioners, allowing them to provide a comprehensive health and wellness experience for the community.

The business is excited about the future and look forward to welcoming both new and existing members to the enhanced facilities.

Rob Tandy said: "Since starting the gym in 2023 it's been a rapid journey to get to where I am today. The guidance and financial support from the British Business Bank has been invaluable to growing my business, from getting a new space I can call my own, to purchasing new equipment.

"The Start Up Loan team provided a holistic experience, helping me tap into a network of support that has fundamentally transformed how I approach every aspect of my business. My success is not just due to the funding; it's because of the mentorship that I wouldn't have been able to access elsewhere."

Alex Mearns, head of Start Up lending at GC Business Finance, added: "At GC Business Finance, we are dedicated to supporting sustainable businesses, like Tandy Health and Fitness, that are boosting regional small business growth. 

"Tandy Health and Fitness is a brilliant example of how entrepreneurs can thrive with the right funding and support – after providing Rob with a Start Up Loan, the business is having such a positive impact on its clients and continuing to expand, offering group sessions and work experience placements to students."

Delyth Edwards, senior network manager at the British Business Bank, said: "Supporting local businesses like Tandy Health and Fitness is key to driving regional economic growth, and providing access to funding is just the first step.

"It's brilliant to see how Rob has grown his business in such a short amount of time from starting his journey without his own space or gym - it is a testament to Rob's determination, development, and skill."
