Our former student placement officer in Communications is starting up a sideline you'd never thought possible.... as a slimming consultant!!

Amraze, 23, the first student from Huddersfield University on the year-long placement scheme with us in 2012-13 -  has been on a healthy eating and exercise regime this year and lost more than six stones. Healthy eating combined with the gym and squash and walking round Savile Park, Halifax, have helped him see the pounds fall off. He's been Man of the Month repeatedly and has stunned his group with his new found dedication.

He's slimmed down from 23 stones to around 16, wears skinny jeans and isn't frightened of his reflection in the mirror in changing rooms any more. He is now working for our partner SWYFT in communications and in the new year is starting up his own Slimming World group in Halifax.

It has its first meeting on Thursday 31 December 5.30pm at Pellon Baptist Church, Spring Hall Lane, Halifax, HX1 4UA. The group will them run every Thursday at 7.30pm after the New Year. 

He has just completed his training and now wants to share the secrets of his success.

Amraze, said: " I really enjoyed my time at CHFT but I wasn't in a very good shape then. After a few stop and start efforts to lose weight I went to Slimming World and finally got to grips with it. I hope I get a full class to start 2016 for others wanting to get into shape in the New Year and share their journey with them."
