After the first half hour session the people who had trained where asked to make a donation to the NHS which they all did. I caught up with Cogans Corners head trainer Shaun Cogan to ask him about what he was looking to achieve with these free training sessions. Shaun told me “We are trying to do our bit to keep people who attend the gyms health and wellbeing up and raise some money for the nurses in the NHS”. Shaun has informed me that they are looking to raise £1000 while in Lockdown.
