Kibou is now available to all Welcome Gym members at an exclusive discounted rate. The partnership builds on our commitment to support our members’ overall wellness and supports Kibou’s mission to empower everyone to communicate about mental health openly within their inner circle.

Our commitment to our members’ well-being goes beyond just their physical fitness. We know that mental ill health affects 1 in 4 of us each year and that often people find it difficult to let others know when they need support. We also know that mental ill health affects more than just the person experiencing it. Especially, if you’re worried about a struggling loved one, it can be difficult to know what to do.

That’s why we’ve partnered with Kibou, the mental health support app that allows members to stay connected to the people who matter most and to ensure they always have access to support.

What Is Kibou?
Kibou (meaning ‘Hope’ in Japanese) facilitates a supportive environment for everyone in their everyday, and provides a unique proposition by focusing on private community-building. The app’s innovative approach allows users to log their progress daily, communicate with a personal support circle of up to 6 loved ones, and be clear about what support really works for them, ensuring that help is accessible and tailored to individual needs.

Kibou represents a refreshing step forward in approaching personal mental health support. In particular, it offers users a powerful platform for connection, empowerment, and community that can be accessed at the touch of a button.

Kibou is set to make a significant social impact by not only addressing the rising rates of mental ill health in our society but also the epidemic of loneliness and disconnection. Kibou creates a space where voices are heard, and support is a collective responsibility.

We believe that lifting and supporting each other is crucial to our overall well-being.

For this reason, we are proud to be able to support Kibou’s mission by ensuring all our members have access to instant support and connection.

“This is a really special partnership that champions mental well-being at the same level as physical well-being. I hope that it resonates with members that might be feeling isolated in their experiences, but I also hope that members who want to support someone else can finally feel less in the dark and more able to check-in with the people they care about on a daily basis.

Giving Welcome Gym members access to Kibou will mean they can support themselves and their loved ones from the gym, at home, at work, or whenever they need to feel connected to their circle. It’s like a gym membership, really - there for you when you need it!” - Ella Doran, Founder & CEO at Kibou App
