The first fitness morning was held in November last year and 30 men and women took part in a whole morning of fun group exercise sessions at The Old Boy’s School in Bolton-le-Sands and successfully raised more than £300 for the ‘Raise the Roof, Open the Door’ appeal for the Holy Trinity Church in Bolton-le-Sands.

The second event helped raise funds for the Jubilee Institute in Heysham following another successful morning of classes including a burlesque chair routine.

Doors open for the festive fiesta on November 28 at 12.30pm for registration.
