The ‘No More Banana Bread’ series will run throughout the third lockdown via the company’s social media channels. Mr Motivator, also known as Derrick Errol Evans MBE, will host a weekly exercise class.
Mr Motivator said: “I’m really pleased to be working with the Umbrella team and, together, I hope we can play our part in bringing some light relief to the hospitality industry over the coming weeks.
“The pandemic has really highlighted how important it is for us to look after our personal fitness, and general health and well-being, so we hope these weekly taster sessions will prove useful during what is a challenging time for so many people.”
As well as a weekly motivational session, the 12-week series will address topics including equality, wellbeing and mental health. Mr Motivator will be hosting his online sessions every Monday at 10am on Umbrella Training’s IGTV channel.
Adele Oxberry, founder of Umbrella Training, added: “The third lockdown has really taken it toll on the physical and mental well-being of so many people. We wanted to give people a fun, interactive and insightful series of events and activities to look forward to.
“Mr Motivator is exactly the sort of person who puts a smile on people’s faces, whilst offering some useful tips and insight on how to look after your well-being.
“The content is open to everybody, whether you’re an industry professional, a budding apprentice, school leaver or current learner there is content planned to appeal to people of all ages and levels.”
