A couple years ago I started volunteering at a charity cooking for families that had a child in hospital, serving a hassle-free home cooked meal to help at such a stressful time.

It was then that I realised that even an everyday task like cooking could help someone.

I couldn’t help but wonder what else I had to offer, and how I could use something that I’m interested in and knowledgeable about to help someone else.

Since health and sports have always been a big part of my life, I started my search there and came across the Get Out Get Active (GOGA) mentoring programme which brought together both my interests and my desire to help.
