Gyms in Brandon

The old flint town on the Little Ouse is almost surrounded by Thetford Forest, so much of Brandon's training happens on trails, with a leisure centre for the rest.

Training in Brandon

A leisure centre in the middle of a forest.

Brandon Leisure Centre on Church Road, run by Abbeycroft Leisure, is the main indoor option, with a gym, a power room, studios and a sports hall, and Brandon Badminton Club is on the list too. UNDRDOG Fitness is the independent gym, and JU JITSU UK teaches in town. Brandon Town Community FC fields teams from age five, and Brandon Town Bowling Club has played since 1949.

Thetford Forest wraps almost all the way round the town, Brandon Country Park is in the town itself, and the disc golf course at High Lodge is a short way out. Trails like these are better shared: a riding partner for the forest or a weekend running group gives you a reason to get out early.
