TV star and fitness expert 'Mr Motivator' headlines Lancashire Fitness Festival at Oakhill School in Whalley
TV personality and fitness instructor Derrick Evans, better known as ‘Mr Motivator,’ was a hit when he came to the Ribble Valley.
He presented at the second ever Lancashire Fitness Festival at Oakhill School in Whalley.
Mr Motivator rose to fame in the 80s though his appearances on the UK breakfast TV show GMTV, where he performed live sessions and offered fitness tips and advice to viewers.


Founded by Holly Lynch and her husband Endrit Shehu, the non profit community event brought together the leading fitness presenters and brands from across the country and beyond to create a weekend of exercise, fun and community. From fitness novices to seasoned professional. Holly, who runs Barrowford based Empower Gym, added: “It is a cause close to the heart of many of us who are all too aware of the struggles in many areas of Lancashire."
And a date has been announced for next year’s fitness festival. It will take place on Saturday and Sunday, July 10 and 11, at the same venue.
