Residents of a retirement village have raised funds to send their gym instructor to Florida to compete in a powerlifting competition.

Residents and staff at Lark Hill Retirement Village in Nottingham raised enough money to fund the entire trip. Proctor said: "It overwhelms me so much that they put their hands in their pocket, at a time like this, and championed me so much.
