Interesting. The start of the piece:

“A woman who claimed thousands of pounds in benefits saying arthritis left her on crutches and struggling to leave home, has been jailed after CCTV showed her taking part in classes at a gym.

Helen Green, 49, from Shrewsbury, was also a member of a running club and had completed a 10km run in just over an hour.

Green had told the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) that severe rheumatoid arthritis in every joint and a slipped disc in her back had left her housebound, Shrewsbury Crown Court heard.

She was jailed for seven months after the DWP acted on a tip-off, with investigators establishing she regularly attended a range of gym classes, including Zumba, core blast and spin.”
