as naturally

do not find it
enjoyable.

website Ealing News Extra set
out to find three volunteers
who wanted to step up to a

everyone to show how it can be done.
People from all over the borough
came forward, all with great reasons for
wanting to take part.
After careful consideration,
three people were chosen:
Andrea, a mum from Acton;
Sunny, a professional
baker from Southall; and
Ann Marie, a retired
surveyor from Ealing.
The three
volunteers had a
meeting with a
health trainer from
NHS One You to talk
about their routine
