Grantham woman's fund-raiser for NHS given boost as personal trainer comes on board
A woman who is raising money for NHS front line workers has had a boost with the help of a personal trainer.
Tanya Thomas is being sponsored to lose more than three stone in weight to raise money after the NHS saved her sister’s life after she contracted Covid-19.
Her sister, Teresa Gray, also suffered two strokes, sepsis and pneumonia while in hospital in Edinburgh, but has since gone home.
Tanya, of Great Gonerby, is inviting people to join her Facebook group - with videos by trainer Jonathan Carter posted there, giving advice on exercise and diet.
Tanya, who has lost three pounds so far, said: “The group is going really well and everyone is getting lots of support and motivation. Jonathan has really gone above and beyond to help everyone, we are all so lucky to have him on board.
“The fund-raising has started to get donations in. It would be lovely if people joined the Facebook group as they will get help with their weight and fitness while following my journey. All they have to do is type in ‘superheroesfitnesschallenge’ and everyone is welcome to the group.”
