PureGym has opened its new site in the former Ipswich Ravenswood Lidl.

The 24-hour gym had a celebration featuring a balloon arch to mark the opening of its second Ipswich gym.

The other PureGym is situated in the Buttermarket Shopping Centre.

The gym comes with free parking, more than 220 pieces of equipment and changing rooms with showers.

Lidl transferred from the site in December to its new bigger premises opposite, leaving the space vacant for just three months while work was done to turn it into the gym.
