A Leamington fitness coach is celebrating after being named the UK’s Personal Trainer of the Year at the prestigious 2025 National Fitness Awards.
Barnaby Galiffe, founder of Project 23 Coaching took home the top prize at the glitzy ceremony in Leicester, beating competition from across the country.
The awards, which are among the biggest in the UK fitness industry, recognise excellence, innovation, and life-changing results.
Barnaby founded Project 23 at Squab Hall, just outside Leamington, in 2021.
The gym was also nominated for Boutique Gym of the year, making the final shortlist.
Barnaby said: “Winning this award is an incredible honour, but the real reward is seeing the progress our clients make every day.
“I take immense pride in seeing so many different people from so many different walks of life, young and old, in making genuine change to their overall health and fitness.
“The plan now is to keep expanding our facility, improving our service and make Project 23 the best facility in the country.
"This award is a great recognition for all the hard work we have put in to our coaching service and the great results our clients have achieved.
"“The recent expansion and the addition of the mezzanine level means we can train even more people in the area with the best possible equipment and coaching environment.
“Finally, I want to thank all my clients at Project 23 for their hard work, dedication and passion in achieving their goals.”
