Meet Lynda — one of our incredible Saturday morning members — whose journey shows exactly what the power of group support can do.
She was proudly voted Woman of the Year by her fellow members, a moment that meant the world to her. She’s lost 3 stone, discovered a love for running, and even joined a running club. Then life threw a curveball when Covid hit. Like so many, she found that time tough… but she stayed connected, showing up to our Zoom groups and refusing to give up on herself.
She’s honest about it — she lost her way for a little while. But by staying with group, supporting others, and letting the support circle around her too, she found her spark again. Now a stone and a half down, she’s firmly back on track and determined that 2026 will be her year.
With her 60th birthday in June, she’s proudly aiming to reach her target by then. And we’ll be cheering her on every step of the way.
Her words say it all:
💬 “This group of ladies has been a lifesaver. I’ve seen so many people come through whose lives change. It’s not always easy, but you make friends who are there for the ups and the downs.”
If you’re ready for your own fresh start — with real support, real people, and real results — we’d love to welcome you too.
