Men aged 30 and over who live in Richmond are being reminded to join a new 12-week weight-loss programme beginning in the coming weeks. Whilst much remains unclear about Covid-19, the risk increases if you’re male, older, from a black or minority ethnic community, overweight, have diabetes or other underlying health conditions. With this in mind, Public Health and Brentford FC Community Sports Trust are encouraging Richmond residents to take proactive steps to get fitter and healthier. And a special message has been sent out........

The weight-loss programme is led by sport and exercise specialists and includes fitness exercises, healthy eating workshops and top tips for permanent lifestyle changes. The classes and workshops will take place online via Zoom and cost just £6 per week. Classes start on Tuesday 22 September.
