Sponsored Slim
Steve is doing a sponsored slim to raise money for the group and weighed in at 18stone 7.6 pound. Members were invited to sponsor him. At the beginning of the diet, sponsorship stands at £8.50 for every pound in weight lost.
Support Group
By a majority of 6 to 2, it was decided that we would pilot a run of 4 sessions at the Quaker Meeting House, once a fortnight, to meet the needs of those who would prefer to meet others in a more relaxed and comfortable way than at social events. These meetings have been booked and we will meet on Wednesday 9th May Wednesday 23rd May Wednesday 6th June
Wednesday 20th June. The meetings will be free to come to, but we will ask all members present to make a donation of up to £1.00, to help finance the cost of the room. At the 1st 3 meetings, the room we are in has its own kitchen. We will be taking our own tea and coffee and charging 50p per cup, again to raise funds to pay for the room. We've created an event for the 1st meeting in upcoming events.
