Slimming team launch new recruitment appeal

Slimming experts in Airdrie are celebrating a hugely successful first half of the year after helping hundreds of people lose weight – and now hope others will join them in their efforts to improve the health of people across the town.

They have launched a new campaign to recruit people with“a passion for helping others”.

Tracy Brown, who manages a team of eight consultants running 13 Slimming World groups in Airdrie, said:“We’re going through a period of steady growth.

“In 47 years, millions of people have changed their lives with Slimming World’s brilliant combination of a hunger-busting eating plan, increased activity and weekly group support.

“Now, with obesity at an all-time high and government predictions saying that 80 per cent of men and 70 per cent of women will be overweight or obese in the next decade, the demand for our unique, warm and friendly approach has never been greater.

“At Slimming World we have the best eating plan in the world where members can, and do, lose weight without ever having to go hungry.”

Tracy added:“We have the best understanding of the psychology of slimming and we choose consultants for their empathy, warmth and understanding.

“We also have the best training in the business. Every consultant who comes on board goes through an in-depth training programme and is awarded diplomas in nutrition and the psychology of weight management, as

well as successfully running their own slimming businesses.”Slimming World consultants are all former members and the role is part-time.Anyone looking for a role in the organisation is invited to contact Tracy on 07957 762378 or visit www. slimmingworld.co.uk/careers Here to help Tracy (right) with her fellow Airdrie consultant Sharon McGinness
