I have spent my life working with children in one way or another but it wasn’t until I became a physiotherapist and specialised in working in paediatrics that I discovered a real joy and empathy with working with young human beings.  Helping them to become the best they could be with the simple power of exercise, emboldened with the encouragement of giving them goals they could achieve. 

I have loved being a physiotherapist, not so much the red tape of admin but the hands on work with children and their families and seeing the smiles when difficulties are overcome has given me a real purpose.  

Now it is time to put the posh anatomical words away and look forward to exploring what retirement will bring from kayaking to traveling and seeing more of my very large family.
