East Sussex Wildlife Rescue and Ambulance Service’s (WRAS) sponsored slim ended this week with Trevor Weeks losing 13.8lbs now weighing 211.6lbs and Bill Pike losing an amazing 37lbs now weighing 233lbs.

"This has been one of the hardest challenges things I have had to do, never mind rescuing whales, swimming after swans and rugby tackling deer, they’re easy, but losing weight thats been hard," said Trevor Week founder of WRAS.

"We are hoping to start collecting the money soon but as WRAS is so low on funds at the moment we are urging everyone to make a donation. You can do so online" said Trevor.

So far this year WRAS has dealt with over 2300 incidents which is more than the total number of incidents last year. Due to having used a years worth of funding in just 7 months WRAS has had to impose restrictions on what it deals with in order to ensure it can help animals in the long run.

Sponsorship money should be sent to WRAS’s Treasurer Peter Mortimer, Ash Cottage, 73 Friday Street, Eastbourne, East Sussex, BN23 8AY.
