Lorraine Lewis

Founder of my charity The Lewis Foundation, obstacle racer, runner, food lover, loves to travel, constantly seeking new adventures.

My name is Lorraine Lewis. My 2 loves are my charity The Lewis Foundation (www.thelewisfoundation.co.uk) and all things fitness.

Firstly, my charity! I run a charity with my husband Lee Lewis called The Lewis Foundation. Every week we go into our local hospital in Northampton and give out free gift bags to adults with cancer who are receiving treatment. We offer 10 gift bags to choose from ranging from portable radios, books, magazines and adult colouring books. The aim is to take people mind off thinking about cancer, in addition to spending some time chatting about anything and everything.

When I am not doing that, I am doing something fitness based. My main love is obstacle running. I got into this through fundraising for my charity. When I am not obstacle racing, I'm running, trying out a new fitness class or some crazy new challenge! I love getting others involved and though people moan, they still seem to like it and get involved.

My downtime involves food (love food), travelling and reading.

My motto: you only live once, and if you do everything you want to do then once is enough!
