BH Live official health and wellbeing provider for FitLiving UK

BH Live has become FitLiving UK’s official health and wellbeing provider for its annual fitness festival, set on Bournemouth beach.

The deal will see BH Live launch a competition in the run up to FitLiving UK (28 and 29 September 2018) called My Active Story, which will celebrate and recognise health and fitness achievements of their members. The competition can be entered by anyone with a fitness story, whether they’ve transformed their lifestyle, body or overcome a health issue.

Twenty winners will be selected by BH Live’s fitness manager Andy Janes and a final winner will be chosen at FitLiving UK by a panel of experts including Gemma Harris, CEO of FitLiving UK, nutritionist Barbara Cox and Dr James Steele from UK Active in a grand awards presentation at FitLiving UK on Saturday 29 September.

Finalists will win tickets to the FitLiving UK festival with one overall winner taking home fitness prizes worth £500.

BH Live will have a presence in the festival’s shopping village, run a Corporate Challenge at FITBIZ on Friday 28 September, host Les Mills classes and a Beach Bootcamp.

FitLiving UK CEO Gemma Harris said: “There has been a huge rise in the popularity of fitness festivals because they allow people to constantly discover new ways to test themselves both physically and mentally.

“BH Live has exactly the same attitude. We are thrilled to be partnering with them again and helping to promote Bournemouth as a top wellness destination.

“BH Live provides outstanding health and wellbeing activities and facilities and are thriving. The My Active Story competition hopes to engage the public and the recognition of their fitness achievement is testament to their ethos and community spirit. “

The partnership agreement sits within FitLiving UK’s wider marketing push, which, in keeping with the latest fitness trends, aims to introduce a number of new fitness lifestyle culture concepts to the national fitness festival calendar. This includes FITMIX – an open air Ibiza style party, and FITBIZ, collaborative seminars for industry professionals on how to improve their PT or fitness business or improve employee’s overall wellness.
