Diet changes to raise money
Umina resident Ms Jacqui Knight is planning to raise money for Febfast by being the designated driver for her friends and charging them a fare.
Febfast encourages people to give up alcohol for the month of February to raise money for young people affected by drug and alcohol.
Ms Knight gave up alcohol in February a few years ago and said she was met with some odd reactions by work colleagues.
"It was as though not drinking, meant not being social," said Ms Knight.
Last year Ms Knight added cola to the Febfast challenge and this year said she planned to add chocolate, cake, biscuits and lollies.
Ms Knight said she planned to use the mornings she would claim back by signing up for a 10 week boot camp which starts at 5:30am on Saturday mornings.
She said she hoped it would have some impact on her waistline and the scales.
