The day has been arranged by a group from Preston who were spurred on by the ‘total lack of sporting facilities for women’ in Kingsfold, Penwortham.
They raised just under £33,000 to help improve women’s health in the area as well as to help women in marginalised communities become fitness instructors.
Kay Johnson MBE and The Larder, a Preston-based social enterprise committed to food fairness and wellbeing, which was founded by Kay, partnered with Tribe Fitness to launch the Kingsfold Fitness Champions initiative.
For more information about the event, you can email [email protected] or call Kay on 07718 901813.
