THE sponsored slim for Chernobyl has reached the half way stage and so far has proved very successful.
All funds raised over the eight-week period will go towards the Beschanagovichu orphan- age in Belarus, which is home to 170 chil- dren.
Since the Slim-In began four weeks ago, participants have been meeting regularly to discuss their progress and have benefitted from the advice of a number of guest speakers
who have attended the meetings.
On November 2 Carmel form Carmel’s Health Shop spoke about products on the mar- ket that can aid weight loss while Take 30 Wo- mens Fitness have allowed participants to use their facilities for the weigh-in.
Future speakers include Brian Moore from the Hypnotherapy Clinic in Ennis and Dr Travis McDonagh of the Advanced Chiro- practic Clinic, who will offer advice on fitness and nutrition.
Organizers would like to thank all partici- pants for the commitment shown so far.
