Swimming Club: Welfare Officer

I am keen to represent the welfare needs of the swimming community. As an undergraduate competitive swimmer at another university, I know first-hand the difficulties that can arise in mental health when pressure is high. I have also worked in mental health before, as a volunteer at a text helpline, I have met people working through various stages and difficulties of life. I enjoy listening to people and helping others feel a sense of calm. I am now studying health psychology as a master's student and am really passionate about the importance of sport and community in promoting wellbeing.  I joined the swimming club this year but have already greatly enjoyed the sessions and competitions I have attended. I would like to help ensure that others have a similarly enjoyable experience and feel safe within the club.
