A Slimming World group in Northampton has raised more than £10,000 for Cancer Research UK after taking part in two annual fundraising challenges.
Stacey Mummery, who runs Slimming World groups at The Abbey Centre in East Hunsbury, said members collected a record-breaking 287 bags of clothes as part of the charity's Clothes Throw campaign before also completing Race for Life.
Together, the two fundraising efforts raised £10,283 for Cancer Research UK.
Stacey said her groups have been taking part in the Clothes Throw and Race for Life for the past six years, with this year's total being their biggest yet.
She said: "I am so proud of my amazing members. My groups have such a strong supportive community feel. Roll on next year."
Stacey runs Slimming World sessions at The Abbey Centre every Tuesday at 5.15pm and 7pm, and every Wednesday at 9am.
