Tom Scaife ( left ) and Gareth Bartlett - Elderfit was formed in 2015 as a Community Interest Company to help improve strength and balance in people of all ages, but primarily those in later life. Recent National Lottery funding has enabled the company's founders, Gareth Bartlett and Tom Scaife, to expand their offering from exercise sessions in private care homes to delivering classes to the public. Significant growth led the company to recruit a project manager, three additional exercise instructors and secure an office base at the biotech and medtech hub. "Tom and I have been really keen to get to this point of working with a varied client base across Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan," said Gareth. "As a Community Interest Company, our firm focus is on social purpose, rather than profit, and we're so happy to be engaging with those people in our communities who really benefit from what we do.
