Sponsored Slim

At our launch event in July we kick-started this new fund raising initiative.

It was suggested as a fund raiser at a dinner at the Town Hall by Ailsa Claire, Chief Executive of the PCT, who promised to work with us.

On Monday 8th November a presentation was held in the Mayor's Parlour for all those who took part.

So far £2,000 has been raised with more to come.

Allan Cooper, our Vice Chairman, was presented with the prize for the most weight lost by an individual, a free years' pass presented by Barnsley Premier Leisure.

Allan lost 24lb going from 18st 3lb to 16st 7lb and gained £244 in sponsorship money.

BIADS also won the prize for the organisation that lost the most weight.

Didn't he and we do well !!
