Slimmers from the Wednesday Slimming World group at Blidworth have lost 63 stones over six weeks and raised money for charity.

Leader Caroline Dobson is pictured presenting Dr Peter Rose, chairman of the Cornwater Club, with a cheque for £198.

The slimmers raised the money through a sponsored slim; coffee and cake groups; and by collecting small change.

The Cornwater Club supports older people. It runs four days a week and offers a range of stimulating activities plus a two-course lunch. For information go to www.cornwaterclub.co.uk
