A gym owner has defended a controversial billboard poster advertising his business after it was vandalised.
The advert - for the PT Factory in Denton - features text which states: “Tired of being fat & ugly? Now just be ugly!”
Ollie Lawrence, who owns the gym, said the poster was intended as a “light-hearted joke”. Although he has received a handful of complaints since it appeared in Stockport Road earlier this month, he said most people had reacted positively.
