Taking measures into his own hands to lose weight, one Nottingham man formed a running group where ‘no one is left behind.’ No matter the weather, the running group has gone on to help dozens of people in different ways - from those with social anxiety, confidence issues and, of course, people wanting to keep fit and healthy.
At one point in his life, 46-year-old Paul Hopkins weighed 20 stone. It was last February that Paul made it his mission to not just help himself - but help others by forming the group.
He said: “I’ve been running for 10 years. Several years ago, I was 20 stone and, after seeing a photo of myself, I thought ‘I have to do something.’
