Treharne takes back the helm at The Gym Group

Richard Darwin is stepping down from his role as CEO of The Gym Group (TGG). He has spent the past seven years leading the low-cost gym chain – a period during which the UK business has grown significantly, from 63 to 229 gyms nationwide.

He will remain available to support the company until July 2023. John Treharne, TGG founder, will take up the reigns as executive chair while the company searches for a new CEO.

“It’s been an honour to help The Gym Group grow into a nationally recognised presence in affordable fitness over the last seven years, first as CFO and then as CEO,” Darwin said.

“I’m extremely proud to have navigated the business through the pandemic, developed the brand and put in place a first-class management team which is capable of taking on this next phase of growth.

“For me, this is the right time to step down; TGG is a great business with enormous potential.”
