About Slimtone
Marie Griffiths
If Marie Griffiths was French instead of Welsh this brief introduction to her resume would be called Marie's "raison de'etre"- her reason for existing.... having devoted almost all of her working life to helping her clients achieve their dreams.
This work ethic and her total commitment to it, have been the building blocks of her considerable business success and, for Marie, the rewards are always measured by her achievements in helping her members rather than the financial rewards they might bring.
When she opened her first Slimtone class in 1982, Marie never imagined how big an impact this would have on so many people's lives. With 20 classes now running in South Wales and members all over the world in her online classes, Marie's original approach to weight loss and fitness, has never been compromised – friendly and sympathetic encouragement, supported by diet plans based on "real" food and the very latest in nutritional information.
Marie's aim has always been to help people help themselves and she takes the view that success comes from a partnership with total commitment from both sides.
Slimtone's philosophy is that, together, we can create an atmosphere of fun combined with commitment, no faddy foods nor expensive supplements, just sensible eating plans.
The success stories on the Slimtone Website speak for themselves – hundreds of men and women who have fulfilled their dreams and unlocked their full potential by losing weight.
If this life is the only chance you get and you want to make the most of it then Marie is waiting for the call that could be your first step towards fulfilling your dreams....

Slimtone - Helping Charities
Donation to Jane & Rhodri
Thanks to all the ladies who kindly bought raffle tickets during our May visit to Champneys Health Farm.
A cheque was recently donated to Jane and Rhodri from Maesteg who are raising money to make a sponsored trek for Alzeimers. A total of over £110.00 was collected with special thanks to the Craig Barber Memorial Fund who helped with the raffle prizes and made a kind donation.
With the generosity of Slimtone members we have now collected nearly £35,000.00 for local charities.

£34,000 Raised So Far....
Since the launch of Slimtone a total of over £34,000 (thirty four thousand pounds) has been donated to local charities.
Thanks to the generosity of members who are no strangers to fund raising having participated in sponsored slims, raffles and even to the painful experience of a sponsored "Back Wax" by one of our male members.
Generous donations have been made for equipment in hospitals, cancer hospices, diabetic units, Easter Egg appeals, Christmas gifts to the under-privileged children to name just a few.
We have included a small selection of our presentations to these worthy causes.

The Pen Is Mightier Than The Sword....
When Slimtone members were made aware that the children of The Gambia were desperate for pens to attend Bakoteh Primary School they immediately started collecting from friends and family. The results were amazing with over 5,000 pens being donated.
In a country where owning your own pen is a pre-requisite of attending school, this small possession, so taken for granted in our own world, is often the difference between prolonged poverty and a means to gaining some degree of freedom through education.
The Simtone members were supported fantastically by Debbie Thomas, seen in the photograph, who used her influence in the airline to provide the crate in which the pens were delivered. Also pictured are the many carrier bags waiting in the school to be claimed by the grateful students.
The special "Thank you" photograph takes pride of place in the Slimtone office.
