Mount Charles head of sales and marketing, Gavin Annon, commented: “We’re excited to launch Freshly Chopped sweat parties. We’ve seen the popularity of these events growing in other cities like London and New York, and thought it’d be brilliant for Belfast - especially at this time of year when people are determined to set the tone for their health and wellbeing in the year ahead.
“Research shows that participation in physical activity can increase self- esteem and reduce stress and anxiety. So whatever your level of fitness, you’re welcome to come along, join in, and leave feeling empowered.”
