PEOPLE are being invited to get gorgeous this new year while raising money for a national charity.

You're Gorgeous beauty treatment clinic in Tavistock, is playing host to a Life Style Choices event next week, offering the Cambridge Lifestyle Plan, winter skin treatments, Tai Chi and thermal massage as alternatives to the usual New Year's pledges.

The event is being staged in aid of Help for Heroes and is aimed at anyone who wants to find out about alternative treatment methods to improve health and well-being.

Janet Teece, who runs You're Gorgeous, said: 'There is a huge amount of pressure on people to make radical changes in their lifestyle when a new year arrives.

'What this evening is all about is giving people the opportunity to find out the benefits of trying alternative therapies and how the wide range of treatments available might help them achieve their aims without taking a more conventional route.'

The event will take place on Wednesday, January 12, 5pm to 9pm. Tickets cost £3 and anyone wishing to attend is asked to book in advance by calling You're Gorgeous on 01822 613344.
