EZE Fitness teams up with Mencap

EZE Fitness, the leisure management company, has appointed Mencap as its chosen charity for 2007 and aims to raise £40,000 for the organisation.

Each of EZE’s nine clubs will be running a series of events – including schemes called Active@Work, Walk it Off and Adopt a School – to help reach the target.
