Meet Vera & Judith!

Two long-standing friends and valued members of our venue in Mablethorpe, who make every moment matter!  

Vera has deep roots in Mablethorpe, being a familiar face to the community having worked as a Teaching Assistant for 26+ years. She initially had no intention of using the gym until she joined the Exercise on Prescription scheme. Kenny, who she once taught in primary school, inducted her into the gym—an experience that soon had her hooked.  

Vera recalls,

“I fell in love and started coming five days a week!”

The Outlaws…

Judith, on the other hand, began her fitness journey in Skegness, enjoying both the gym and swimming. After a brief break, she was thrilled to have the new venue in Mablethorpe. Although they both started their journeys separately, the opening of our new venue in Mablethorpe allowed them to now enjoy that journey together!  

Interestingly, the two share a deeper connection… Their husbands worked together at Blue Anchor Leisure over 40 years ago, and their children even rode the same bus to Boston College—both proudly wearing Manchester United football tops and fell in love! The rest is history! Dubbed ‘The Outlaws,’ Vera and Judith have been close for over 20 years, often sharing and enjoying family time.

Fun for the whole family…

They both love attending Aquacise together. Vera has also enjoyed the array of exercise classes. The new facility also brings joy to Vera’s grandchildren, who enjoy the MagnaTag obstacle arena and swimming. 

Through their inspiring friendship and commitment to fitness, Vera and Judith show that no matter how or where you begin, every moment counts when it comes to living a healthy, active life with those who matter most.
