A CHARITY weight loss competition is underway between two members of Bournemouth Chamber of Trade and Commerce.

Mandy Payne, president, is being challenged by Steve Brock, owner of Spotcheckers, to shed the pounds and raise cash for Macmillan Caring Locally’s The Grove Hotel.

The money will help The Grove provide more holidays for people with cancer and other life limiting illnesses.

Steve and Mandy will each lead a team and will receive the help of specialised trainers and using Herbalife as a weight loss aid over the next two months.

Mandy said: “Macmillan Caring Locally and The Grove provide an excellent facility that deserves our support. Steve Brock and I both felt that this is not only a great way to improve health and fitness, but to raise awareness and funding for The Grove.”
