A slimming World consultant from Littleport has struck gold for helping more than 100 people to lose weight.

Sharon Heaps has been awarded ‘Gold’ status by the national slimming club because of her success in supporting slimmers to reach their ideal weight.

The accolade is given to consultants who consistently have 100 or more members in their group over several months.

Sharon said: “I’m passionate about helping people to transform their lives by losing weight and seeing them succeed is reward enough, but being given this recognition for the whole group is the icing on the cake.”

Her Littleport group has 135 members – and together they have lost a total of 316st in the last year.

Sharon also runs a 9.30am group Tuesdays at the leisure centre and a group at Swaffham Prior Village Hall Thursdays at 5.30pm and 7pm.
