I joined LYR way back in June 2012 and have loved the community ever since. I had no experience in rowing when I started other than from what I learnt from my Gym Instructors course. I have previously worked as a youth play worker, and Football coach at another great charity organization called The Winchester Project where I worked with children age ranging from 5 years to 20 years old. I love the life skills side of coaching and making sure the young people around me learn some skills and have fun while doing it.
