A GYM is searching for “outstanding” people who have inspired women to get more involved in sport.

The Gym, which has sites in Tottenham Hale and Wood Green, has launched its Unsung Heroes of Sports and Fitness awards and is looking for a coach at a sports club, a fitness instructor at a community centre or someone who gives up their time to umpire at local sports matches.

The nominations for people who have helped women overcome fear of judgement and take part in physical activity will close on June 1, with the winner being announced three days later.

The prize is free lifelong membership to any site of The Gym throughout the country.
