Staff
Active Campus
Our Active Campus programme for university staff and postgraduate researchers is a great way to put movement into your day through sport and exercise sessions. It’s also a great way to have fun and meet new people from across the university. You don’t need to have an Edge membership in order to participate.
Active Campus activities include Badminton, Netball, Run Club, Spin, Les Mills Shapes, Climbing, Pilates, Strength training and more!
All sessions take place at either The Edge or the Gryphon Sports Centre on Woodsley Road.
The sessions vary in duration and time of day to suit as many staff members as possible.
All levels and abilities are welcome! Join our MS Teams group for the latest updates.
