Hi Nick. Your numbers look a bit alarming to me - some years she weighed over 1kg more than she does now at this time of year? If that's right then there must be something wrong. After all the amount of shell must be the same so the difference must be water, fat and body tissue. I doubt you would find anyone to take her in partly because she might have a serious health problem.
I think it might be really unsafe to let this tortoise hibernate. Lets see what others suggest but I think you have to think in terms of providing for her indoors all winter and trying to get her weight up.
