Enhancing Community Health through Physical Literacy and SmartGyms: A Path Towards Health Equity in the Digital Era https://lnkd.in/gN-rRw9E

If you're wondering what a partnership with the NHS looks like, look no further. Those that know me well, know the excitement I shared back in 2019 when my team and I delivered upon this new partnership with the NHS. The River Bourne Club is a Private Health and Fitness Club based in Chertsey, Surrey, that formed part of our portfolio of clubs & studios. Since purchasing the club back in 2013, we'd been working on initiatives that tackled preventable illnesses, pre-hab, recovery and programmes that enabled the community to be more resilient, wrapping our ideas around the physical & mental health strategies, so that we could be relied upon by the NHS and be seen as an extension to Health Care. It's a joyous moment for me to see how Matthew Russell (General Manager) and his awesome club team, have continued to cover meaningful ground, driven by a united goal , 'To address the State of the Health & Wellbeing of the UK', and to showcase that their workforce are skilled and equipped to assist the Health Care with sustainable wellbeing, in conjunction with the amazing, forward thinking, MSK team at Ashford & St Peter's Hospital, who were motivated to take a good grip of the root cause. Anything in life is possible, and whilst these partnerships take time to nurture, I can honestly say that the outcome(s) are simply astonishing, in particular knowing that you've played a part in helping fewer people live with long-term conditions, improved life-spans, quality of life, life satisfaction or even prevented avoidable deaths. A journey like this has NO.1 satisfaction written all over it. Need some help in initiating a strategy like this? Feel free to reach out to myself or Matthew Russell. Well done Riverbourne Health Club, you're a role model for transformational change!

As I near completion of my capstone course with Dr. Jonathan Howe, he delegated each of our students in the class to come up with a workshop to provide insight on a topic within the sports industry. With a focus on the area of "Health and Sport Participation", I chose to research and learn more about the health implications of travel on student athletes, particularly with an emphasis on the effects since recent conference realignment. Please watch below! #templeuniversity #studentathletes #mentalhealth #wellbeing #conferencerealignment

Alongside my coauthor, Claire Wanzer, we are studying former Division 1 student-athletes' (men & women) experiences with their sports career and health practices. If you or someone you know fits this criteria, please consider completing the survey or sharing it. We appreciate your support in researching this important topic! #studentathlete #collegeathletics #collegeathlete #athletementalhealth #athletejourney
