A Worcester man has won Slimming World's Man of the Year for 2022.

Simon Hodgetts, of Lower Broadheath, joined in January 2022 and reached his target weight by losing 3st 9lbs.

He decided to give it a try after starting to get knee pain when walking up the stairs at home.

Simon has said that the benefits of losing weight have been fantastic and his knee pain has no longer hurt and he feels lighter on his feet when active.

He also said he is now never out of breath, which has improved his asthma and reduced snoring at night.
