As well as supporting the charity, the events were a chance for the local members to get active to help their own journeys.

Local team developer Liz Farrell said:

“It was so inspiring to see our members come together outside the group setting, not only improving their own health but helping raise money for life-saving research.

“Slimming World is about so much more than weight loss – it’s about building confidence, friendships, and community, and this event showed all of that in action.”

In total the team raised £8,412 for Cancer Research UK.
