My Starting Block was just over 6 years ago when I went to South Africa for 3 months and stayed in a small town called Clarens. During my stay I saw first-hand the impact that poor nutrition can have on both physical and mental health. I knew from this moment I wanted a job where I could positively impact people’s lives through good food, nutrition and education. This led me to taking a degree in Public Health Nutrition and later resulted in me joining the Nutrition team at Chartwells where I engage with students, schools and parents promoting good health and well-being. My eye-opening experience in South Africa helped me to determine my passion and shaped my future goals of what I wanted to achieve and therefore I will be running 6.2 miles/10km to mark the start of my journey which brought me to where I am today. Please sponsor me on my challenge and join me in supporting the Dame Kelly Holmes Trust.
