Nanette

12 May 2017

Nanette joined Ribble Valley's Up and Active walks following the loss of her husband.  It has helped her to recover from her loss.

Nanette said, "I have always loved walking but with the loss of my husband I was lost. Having joined the walks programme, I feel so much fitter in body and mind.  I cant believe how many wonderful friends I have made and from the first day I was made to feel welcome. Where did my aching knees go? I don’t know.

I am known as Little Nan, but now I am so fit I can keep up with anyone.  We walk, we chat we laugh. If tragedy happens, as it did for me a while back, you have so many friends there for you."
