During the pandemic, I have felt extremely grateful and proud to have delivered a range of virtual fitness sessions for Manchester City of Sanctuary.

I have learned so much about what this amazing organisation does to support refugees and asylum seekers. I’ve virtually met the people working and volunteering to help people from all over the world to feel supported (and part of a friendly community here in Manchester) and I have virtually met all kinds of incredible refugees and asylum seekers, who have a laugh together and bring great energy to the sessions.

It is a wonderful feeling when people say they feel amazing at the end of a session, and when they say they’ve felt motivated to train independently between sessions.

Keep up the good work everyone
