116. Sport in Mind: Transforming Mental Health Through Sport & Physical Activity
Description
Sport in Mind describes itself as "the leading mental health sports charity in England and Wales."
Its mission is to transform people's mental health through sport and physical activity, working in partnership with the National Health Service and sports governing bodies, and harnessing the power of sport to inspire, educate, and promote good mental health.
Our speaker, Craig Adams, is Sport in Mind's head of partnerships. After spending eighteen years working in big tech in both the US and Asia, Craig was introduced to Sport in Mind's founders via a common friend. Being a huge sports fan, and participating in a number of sports, whilst also having his own mental health story, the opportunity to marry up passions with helping others was for him the perfect fit.
Outside of work Craig enjoys exploring new countries and cultures, is obsessed with golf and the Liverpool football club, and enjoys experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen.
