Fighting for mental health
Javeno McLean is a personal trainer who decided early on he wanted to make a change to help his community become the best versions of themselves.
Driven by his passion for helping others, he’s now the owner of the award-winning J7 Health Centre in Blackley, North Manchester and known around the world for his inspiring training.
Watch how Javeno took his idea and made it real.
After Javeno achieved an early goal of becoming a professional cricketer, he became a community leader, hosting exercise classes for Manchester City Council. But he didn’t want to stop there: he wanted to help even more people.
He leaned even more into his love of fitness and turned his long-time idea into reality, opening his own North Manchester health centre in 2015.

"I wanted somewhere anyone could come in and feel welcome, somewhere where no one is watching you and judging what you’re doing."
