2022 – What A Year!

Dec 9, 2022

As 2022 comes to an end, we have been looking back on what a fantastic 12 months it has been here at the Bridge Health & Wellbeing.

We were excited to restart events with covid restrictions behind us and welcome new faces to our growing team, as well as begin new partnerships with businesses, schools and sports clubs around Dorset.

Here are some of our highlights:

We have also expanded the gym and rehabilitation services this year, including opening up the space for more equipment to assist with recovery.

We couldn’t have done any of it without the support of you, our fantastic clients. So thank you to each and every one of you for helping make our vision of creating a dedicated health and wellbeing space in the heart of Christchurch where everyone is welcome a reality.

Here’s to 2023!
