T-T Slimming Challenge Raises £250 for Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank

A group of T-T volunteers participating in a slimming challenge have raised £98.80 for Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank, a local charity dedicated to providing essential food supplies to those in crisis. T-T has further topped up the amount to £250, ensuring even more support for the fight against food poverty and hunger in the local community.

Slimming for a Cause

Twelve staff members are taking part in the T-T Slim Club challenge, collectively shedding an impressive 44lbs. Each participant contributes £1 weekly, with the biggest weight loser at the end of a set period winning 30% of the collected funds, while the remainder is donated to charity.

Kim Glover emerged as the winner of the weigh-in, and we extend a huge ‘well done’ to Kim and all participants for their dedication and hard work.

The team will take a well-earned break over Easter before resuming the challenge on April 14th, aiming to raise even more for Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank.

Supporting a Vital Cause

Since opening in 2012, Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank has been part of a nationwide network supported by The Trussell Trust. The organisation has provided vital support to thousands of local people over the last nine years, working tirelessly to combat food poverty and hunger across the UK.

Newcastle-Staffs Foodbank is one of three charities supported by T-T in 2021, alongside The Macari Foundation and Cancer Research UK.

A massive congratulations to all involved! We’re proud to support this fantastic charity and look forward to raising even more throughout the year.
