Stone gym members prepare for 12-hour non-stop circuit to raise funds for MIND

SWC Stone GYMSeven gym members at SWC Fitness in Stone will hold a 12 hour non-stop session next month to raise funds for a mental health charity.

On Saturday 7th October, SWC Fitness are holding their second marathon gym session with the aim of raising £10,000 for MIND, double the amount collected through the first effort in 2022.
