Safe, Confident Progress.
Today, I combine decades of clinical experience with specialist training in fitness, exercise referral, nutrition, and counseling skills.
This allows me to offer bespoke, evidence‑based programmes tailored to individual needs, particularly for those with medical conditions and older adults who want to improve strength, mobility, and overall well being.
I have worked in health and wellbeing for over 45 years, supporting people across a wide range of clinical and fitness settings. I began my career in the NHS, where I spent the first 19 years developing strong clinical foundations, before moving into the independent sector with Nuffield Health, Europe’s largest health and wellbeing charity. I currently work with the award‑winning Cardiac Rehabilitation Team at UHNM.
In 2023, my own life took an unexpected turn when I experienced an ST‑elevation myocardial infarction (heart attack). During my recovery, I gained first‑hand insight into the physical and emotional challenges people face when rebuilding their health, fitness, and confidence. This experience inspired me to retrain and expand my skills so I could help others lead healthier, more active lives in a safe and supportive way.

Reviews
What our clients say about Fit 2 Function
I've had a full recovery following my surgery thanks to the team. I couldn't be more thankful.
Annon, Nantwich
I had a heart attack 14 months ago and did the cardiac rehab course at a gym in Newcastle under Lyme. I thoroughly enjoyed it! Within 3 months I was back training well and within 7 months I was fully back mountain biking . The Cardiac Rehab team went above and beyond in helping me recover.
