Slimming World – life is worth racing for!

Slimming World – life is worth racing for!

Slimming World have teamed up with Race for Life and are sponsoring the charity to not only help raise funds for cancer research but also encourage members to join in and get healthier along the way.

In 2023 Slimming World as a whole raised £949,567 for Cancer Research UK. This year they hope to raise even more.

If you have never taken part before then don’t worry, there is no pressure to run the whole distance, many people walk at least part if not all of the way. The aim is to run or walk a distance of 3, 5 or 10k. The fundraising comes from sponsors who you gain yourself prior to race day.

Slimming World isn’t just about encouraging healthier food choices, it’s also about creating a healthier lifestyle that incorporates regular exercise.

Their ethos is that exercise is for everybody and they offer support throughout your journey and Race for Life is a fantastic goal to work toward. No matter your fitness level you are able to set a pace that suits you.

If you are looking to be fitter, healthier and feel better in both mind and body this Summer, then why not try Slimming World. Everyone is welcome to come and be part of their groups, gain support and become part of a community dedicated to the health and happiness of all who attend.

You can also support the cause by donating to the local West Cumbria Slimming World Race for Life fundraising page here; www.fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/team/jens-egremont-slimming-world-team
