LIVEWIRE is urging people to keep to their new year fitness resolutions by making the most of leisure facilities in Culcheth and Birchwood.

Now the last of the Christmas chocolates have been eaten and normality has resumed, there are a range of fitness classes and drop-in weight management sessions every Friday at 10am at the Culcheth campus in Warrington Road.

Meanwhile, Birchwood Leisure and Tennis Complex offers spinning, zumba and body combat sessions, adult and children tennis lessons and drop-in weight management sessions every Wednesday at 5.30pm.

Alternatively if you trying to quit smoking, help is at hand at Culcheth CCA Partnership in Jackson Avenue every Monday at 1.30pm and every Wednesday at Birchwood Medical Centre at 9am.

Keith Maddock, LiveWire’s neighbourhood wellbeing director, said: “Our six leisure centres have launched a variety of new classes and fitness programmes for 2015 while our lifestyles team have added new sessions and venues to our free lose weight and stop smoking drop-in groups."
