I am a Registered Nurse and Personal Trainer, with an MSc in Nutrition, Physical Activity and Public Health, and a Certificate in Counselling.
I have over 30 years of nursing experience; most recently as a Community Nurse for Older People.
Unfortunately this role was decommissioned. I loved working in the community, and especially empowering people to stay independent (as much as they were able).
Adding a Diploma in Personal Training to my nursing experience has allowed me to do this.
In addition, I have certification in ‘Adapting Exercise for Older Adults’ and ‘Exercise/GP Referrals’.
My aim is to empower people to lead fuller lives through personalised programmes that restore function and vitality; improving overall fitness, wellness and health in a responsible, safe and professional manner.
My particular interests are those who want to gain confidence to join a gym, those with long-term health conditions, those lacking confidence to get fitter, those who want to exercise in the safety and security of their own home, those a bit unsteady on their feet, fallers, the elderly, in fact- anyone just daunted by the whole fitness or ‘gym thing’, young or old!
Stay strong, stay healthy, stay happy.
