A Nuffield Health fitness and wellbeing centre in Norbury, South London, has reopened its doors after an arson attack during the 2011 riots caused £1m worth of damage to the venue.

The facility has undergone an extensive refurbishment and has benefited from an additional £40,000 investment to bring it back into use for members and local residents.

Trevor Reeves - the owner of a Croydon furniture store destroyed during the riots - and Olympic discus hopeful Lawrence Okoye helped to mark the centre's official reopening.

More than 100 pieces of Life Fitness and Concept equipment are on offer at the new-look Norbury facility, along with a new physiotherapy room and a personal training area.

The personal training area offers Escape equipment, TRX machines, ViPR medicine balls, kettlebells and Swiss balls.

General manager Lee Seamons said: "We are proud to offer a facility where we work towards improving the wellbeing of our community and it was great to be able to welcome them back to the new club with this fantastic event."
