A sliming group has moved to a new venue after becoming so popular the previous location was no longer large enough.
Emma Woodwards runs the Slimming World group that used to meet in Upper Stratton Baptist Church, but will now hold meetings in St Peters Hall in Penhill.
Emma said: “We had to say goodbye to Upper Stratton Baptist Church because the group needed more room to grow and the hall seemed perfect as it is in the heart of the community.”
Emma was herself a member of Slimming World before she set up this group.
She said: “I still remember walking through the doors expecting to be judged and what I experienced in Slimming World couldn’t have been further from that. I was met by loads of friendly faces. Absolutely no judgement or humiliation.
“That atmosphere is exactly what I aim to continue through our fantastic group in Penhill”.
The group will meet on Thursdays at 6.30pm, and anyone wanting to join can contact 07824 594033.
