Former Latifs Bilston store to become 24/7 Simply Gym
Fitness fans will be able to work up a sweat 24/7 when a new gym opens on the site of a former discount warehouse in Bilston. The site once home to the Aladdin's cave known as Latifs will soon become Simply Gym.
Latifs pulled the shutters down on the Loxdale Industrial Estate unit in Northcott Road on November 10. Work was now under way to transform the building into a 'state of the art, open plan gym'.
An exact opening date hasn’t yet been announced, but bosses hope to launch in mid-to-late March. When up and running, the gym will offer 'no contract membership' and offer a ladies-only area and daily studio classes at 'no extra cost'.

Simply Gym told BirminghamLive it was a family-run business with eight gyms across the Midlands and South West. However it said the Bilston branch would be its "biggest and most advanced facility yet".
A spokesperson said: "The upcoming 24/7 gym promises state-of-the-art equipment and a variety of classes, all available for just £24.99 per month. Simply Gym is offering exclusive pre-opening discounts and updates for early registrants."
People can visit simplygym.co.uk/bilston-coming-soon to register interest. According to the website, while the site would be open to members 24/7, it would only be staffed between 6am and 9pm on weekdays, and 8am to 4pm at weekends.
