Local Zumba teacher Liz Downes will be leading the sessions. She said: “The whole morning should be great fun, as well as helping everyone keep in shape. We also want to be able to fund specialist equipment for the students at Oak Grove College, and assist WADARS prepare for the many calls they will be getting this spring regarding wildlife in distress.”
