A ROSS woman who has helped countless slimmers has been rewarded at a glitzy award ceremony.

Sue Holdcroft, who runs weekly Slimming World groups at the town’s Ryefield Centre, was invited to the network’s annual awards night in Birmingham.

The 54-year-old was recognised for her tireless work over the past seven years and was invited on stage to meet TV personality Justin Lee Collins.

Together with classes she runs over the Gloucestershire border in Newent, Sue is responsible for the weight loss of around 150 people.
