ActivAble Development Officer

Sports has always been a community for me growing up I would try various sports such as hockey, swimming, tennis and badminton. Going into college I found my love for women’s rugby. I played all through university and now play for Ipswich YM and have had a few run outs with Suffolk.

Sports has always been the place I go to meet new people and make new friends. I feel like it is a far better icebreaker then the classic 3 fun facts about yourself.

3 fun facts about me.

I grew up in Exmoor somerset on a small holding, so I love being outdoors and in the countryside.

I have 3 pets Merlot a black lab Whiskey a kelpie and a horse called ralph who equally keep me fit and on my feet.

I love working my Felixstowe class on a Monday morning as on a nice sunny day I will have a sneaky fish and chips on the beach afterwards.

I love this role as I get to introduce members and groups I visit to not only the physical benefits of sports but also how it can bring people closer and bring out true emotion. weather that’s a laugh at a silly mistake or a cheer at a sometimes skilful win. The benefits of any sport at any level are endless and I am lucky to be able to show that to people.
