A NEW fitness class for mums with young children has been created.

Qualified fitness instructor Jennylea Jones’ idea to provide a place for mums of babies and toddlers is now up and running and takes place every Wednesday at The Mill Academy, Worsbrough.

Jennylea said: “I found that there was nowhere to go for new mums who wanted to get back into fitness following their pregnancy. Sometimes people struggle for childcare so babies and toddlers are invited to come along - it’s a weight off mums’ shoulders knowing their children are nearby.

“We have a play area filled with toys to keep them entertained while their mums are working out.

“It’s into its fourth week now and it’s had a good response, so hopefully we’ll start to see more faces coming through the door.”

* The sessions start at 1pm.
