Keep fit while on lunch break

A NEW lunchtime fitness group for working people is being launched in Portishead.

The 30-minute class is at Parish Wharf Leisure Centre each Friday from 1.15-1.45pm and runs from September 17 to November 12.

The classes are open to all local employees and cost £9 for eight sessions.

The lunchtime fitness sessions are part of a new initiative by North Somerset Council to encourage healthy and active workplaces.

The initiative is being funded by Sport England.
