I WRITE to thank you for an editorial which you printed on November 16. This featured a picture of me and a colleague who have both lost weight through Slimming World.

I got a fantastic response from the article in your paper and gained many new members in the class I run as a result. I opened a new Slimming World class on November 19 and now have 22 members.

In our first two weeks my members lost a total of five stone four pounds between them which is quite incredible in the run up to Christmas.

Once again, many thanks for giving me the opportunity to reach your readers.

SIAN SANDERS,

Gibbs Leaze,
