Who is your female role model in sport? Definitely my active schools coordinator. She always goes above and beyond to encourage, support and make sport accessible to everyone that she works with. Her attitude towards her job is very inspiring and I have learnt a lot from her.
Why did you want to join the Fit for Girls programme? To work with a group of like-minded people, motivated to empower and support girls in sport.
What do you want to achieve as a Fit for Girls Tutor? I hope to be able to support other girls on their journey. Giving them resources, encouragement and confidence to make a difference and overcome some of the barriers women face in sport.
Your message to girls wanting to get involved in sport: Say yes to every opportunity, you won't know what could happen until you try.
