Elvery's...

Hi All, Speaking to Elverys in Portlaoise re Gait analysis & footbalance(Orthotics) & they have sent this to me.
We are organising a club night between 6 - 9 pm on Friday the 12th of August in our Elverys store. A rep will be present from Optimum Nutrition (Glanbia Owned) and we will be doing free gait analysis on the night also. There will be samples on the night also just on the nutrition side. The more we get down the better and the more we can organise club discounts.

Also we can organise another night when we get in the footbalance in the store but i cant give you a date on that yet.

Hope to see you all there.
Regards,

Tommy
