Catherine is a lifelong exercise
enthusiast and a runner of relatively short distances, which includes being a
regular in the “Race for Life” 5k! Her
main passions are boxing and martial arts but during lock down especially, this
was difficult and so running was her go-to place with keeping herself and her
family fit. She
started off by dragging her 3 children on runs and now I have to chase them! Catherine
is a huge advocate for population health and activity for everyone, regardless
of ability. Catherine’s
job role is in Gloucestershire Health Care Working Well as a “Pro-Active” Physiotherapist, which
focuses on moving away from original models of reacting to the needs of staff
after problems start. The aim is to keep fit and reduce issues beforehand,
where possible! Health and Hustle is a wonderful resource for staff and
Catherine has joined the team as a key member of the team providing expert
advice on injury prevention. Having
experienced her own personal challenges in her fitness journey, she realises
how hard it can be to get going and keep going, as well as the important of
being part of a support network. Return to the Bio's Section
