Wellness & Education Co-ordinator

Mark spent 13 years working for charity organisations, taking a lead in the community by delivering many different health, wellbeing and sports/fitness activities and projects.

Mark played rugby as a teenager when he realised he needed to take up a physical activity to help him lose weight. Mark got in to coaching and has gained many key achievements, some of these include:

• Head Coach for Wales & Cardiff Blues under 18’s Girls
• WRU Programme Lead for Women’s rugby in Wales
• University South Wales Coach of the Year

Mark’s passion is developing others, supporting people to improve their health, and helping them to be the best they can be. 

A random fact that Mark shared was that he has achieved his lifelong ambition of visiting The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt.
