The ‘RAF Valley Rolling Stones’ (Typing Pool) have donated a cheque for £140 to the Anglesey First Response Scheme. Sqn Ldr Lansdell (OIC of the RAF Valley First Response Team) took collection of the cheque on 31 August from Mr Victor Owen.
The RAF Valley Rolling Stones started their weight loss campaign in March with the ‘weigh- in’ taking place every Monday morning in the Typing Pool office; Dawn Bate kept a record of the weight loss (or in some cases the weight gain!!). Participants paid 50p to be weighed and a further 50p if there had been any weight gain. The team lost a total of 4 stones over the 6 month period - Victor Owen was the most successful losing 2 of those stones.
The names of those who participated are – Dawn Bate, Julie Kinchin, Helen Steward, Sqn Ldr Steve Dharmaraj, Padre Pete Tollerson, Mal Nairn, Nia Williams, Liz Davidge, Victor Owen, Liz Falconer, Penny Latham and Lorraine Holmes.
