I currently pay £308 a month toward my IVA. My yearly review was September 2018 at a time when gyms weren’t open so I didn’t have a gym membership.

Now gyms are reopening I would like to join the gym for £26 a month to help my physical and mental well-being.

Would this have to come out of my £40 hobby allowance? Or can I ask my IP to include this in my expenditure list

I added a gym membership about a year into my IVA, it was accepted as an additional expenditure.

Thanks!
Also no idea why I said 2018, I meant 2020!

Some IPs will accept it, some won't --- you just have to try it and see.
My opinions are merely that .. opinions based on experience. Always seek professional advice.
IVA Completed 23rd July 2013 .... C.C. 10th January 2014
