Photos have shown the latest progress ahead of a gym's relocation in Dereham later this year.

New Revolution (NR) Health & Fitness Club will be taking over a 24,000 sq ft unit on the town's high street.

The unit was previously occupied by Wilko, which closed in 2023 after the chain collapsed into administration.

The business is moving from its current site on Norwich Street, with the unit to be restored to its original state.

In the latest update, it was confirmed that the club's graphics were being put up on the windows and works were taking shape on the inside.

A spokesman for NR said: "It’s all starting to come together now, and the transformation is already looking unreal.

"Every step is bringing us closer to opening day. We can’t wait for you to see the finished result."

The facility will be spread across two floors and include a boxing area, coffee shop, NRRox space, recovery areas, reformer pilates studio, and sauna among others.

The club is currently scheduled to open on July 1.
