DERRY’S own Apprentice Girl Leah Totton today launched her new business.
The Waterside woman last year won the popular The Apprentice show on BBC1 which carried a prize of a £250,000 investment from leading businessman Alan Sugar.
Leah, a qualified doctor, today combined her 26th birthday with the official opening of her first cosmetic clinic.
The local woman said it was the most ‘fantastic birthday present’.
"The last six months have been absolutely hectic. I continued to work full-time for the NHS until August, and then I took up a full-time position with Lord Sugar so it became quite difficult to balance both," she said.
"I've been working full-time with him to build the business, and I couldn't imagine how difficult it was going to be, and to be honest I had no idea just how much my life would change.
"It's been a stressful six months but fantastic too, I feel so lucky."
