Samantha from North West Leicestershire
Physical activity has become a key part of Sam's life, after initially becoming active in 2020.
Whether it be walking her children to school, a quick dumbbell session during her lunch break or even dancing round the living room at the end of the day to get her steps in, all these things contribute to make her a better and happier mum, friend and colleague.
As a life long anxiety sufferer, and after suffering the devastating loss of her mum in 2022, being active has been even more important to help boost her mood and safeguard her mental health.
Sam wants people to see that you don't have to be an expert to move to improve your health and wellbeing, and believes that "everyone starts somewhere, and we can all find something we enjoy to make part of our daily routine".
