You may remember back in May we set every Slimming World group the challenge of covering a distance of 40 miles. From strenuous strolls to sponsored cycles – you embraced the 40 miles with bells on – raising ££££s for our charity SMILES! We’ve got a selection of your fab 40 miles photos below... Forty and fabulous!Members in Suzi Rigby’s group in Hammerwich in Staffordshire, couldn’t wait to take up the 40 Miles for SMILES challenge. They raised £600 for SMILES and even got some help from their four-legged friends!      Getting everyone on board!35 members from each of Sarah Rishworth’s three groups in West Yorkshire did a six mile sponsored walk along the Leeds to Liverpool canal on Sunday 7th June.      A country mileConsultant Vicki Southwood’s Acomb group in York walked their 40 Miles for SMILES in the country estate where she lives. ‘Eleven of us covered 33 miles between us and our walk took us along the riverbank and through the forest. It was so pretty and brilliant Body Magic – and we rewarded ourselves with a Food Optimising picnic at the end! To ensure that we reached our 40 miles target two of my members also did a six mile walk at the weekend.’  What a result!Jill Love and her Yeovil group raised a fantastic £750 for SMILES. Jill said: ‘Cheryl Thyer cycled the Tarka Trail while she was on holiday in Devon and Julie Light rowed 10 miles on a rowing machine at the gym.

On your bike!Stewart Fraser, from Bernadette McParland’s group in Strathclyde, cycled the whole 40 miles himself raising over £500 for SMILES! Bernadette says: ‘Stewart is a Target Member of my Helensburgh Thursday afternoon group in Strathclyde and he’s lost 2st ½lb! He told me he’d never have had the confidence to take up the challenge when he was at his heaviest weight, but now, thanks to Slimming World, it’s a different story – he feels he can do anything!’     A breath of fresh sea air!Sharon Bright’s members in Essex donned fabulous 40 Miles for SMILES t-shirts to walk a mile along Southend seafront. It was a bit blustery but luckily the rain held off for them!

Rainy days and Sundays always make us smile!Members of Rachel Watson’s Godmanchester and Huntingdon groups walked 40 Miles for SMILES on Sunday, 7th June at Grafham Water in Cambridgeshire. Rachel explains: ‘The walk was a huge success and thoroughly enjoyable despite the fact it poured with rain! Two members did 11 miles each and the rest of us, 32 people in total, joined together to do a mile each making our total miles for smiles 54! It was great fun, and I'm just so proud of all my members for raising a fantastic £609.00 for the NSPCC!’
