Popular Roseland vicar, Father Doug Robins, is starting a sponsored slim to raise money for the Veryan and Roseland Tennis Club. He is hoping that by losing pounds, he can gain pounds for a project to improve amenities and facilities at the club, initially by upgrading the court-side shelter and viewing facilities, and installing floodlights.
The “weigh in” will be 1st Sunday of Wimbledon, and the “weigh out” will be at the Barn Dance on 14th August. At the Barn Dance there will be a competition with a prize for the person who guesses the correct amount of weight he has lost during his slimming crusade.
He will need all the help and encouragement he can get; practical, emotional and psychological, as well as material so sponsorship forms will be made available in the Roseland area to anyone who’d like to support him. Alternatively, contact Father Doug directly by Email: fatherdougrobins@talktalk.net or phone: 01872 501618.
Everyone at Roseland Online wishes him the very best and we look forward to reporting on his success in the summer!
