The award winning online fitness instructor who recently won the Muddy Stilettos award for Best Fitness Instructor in Nottinghamshire & Derbyshire 2023 for the second year in a row has been busy in the last month spreading the word about the annual ‘Lorna Marie Fitness Foodbank Drive’ for Arnold Foodbank on December 9.
Lorna said “Last year the team and our clients, many of whom are from Gedling borough collected almost 1/2 tonne of food (over 450kg) and this year we want to make it bigger and better than ever.
“We are looking to collect non-perishable goods and essential items for those finding themselves in difficulty this winter.” “I am so impressed with the way our members have pulled together this Christmas to help support our local community. With the current climate as it is it is even more important now than ever before to extend a hand to help those less fortunate than ourselves. We hoping to take a mega donation to the Arnold Food Bank and hope that it makes a big difference.
“It’s a wonderful way to help the community, bring everyone together and do something positive. Please do bring whatever you can on 9th December, 8.30-10.30am, Lowdham Village Hall.”
