I flew to Kathmandu last month to trek the Himalayas and climb Yala Peak (5,500m).
Turning 40 made me want a challenge.
Working in the NHS — and training as a coach — I talk a lot about resilience and goal-setting.
This trip was my chance to live it. Tough, cold, unforgettable.

Had the pleasure of facilitating a coaching session at the Luton Inpatient Away Day yesterday 🙌
We explored communication, stress management (using the stress container), and used the GROW model to set wellbeing goals as a team 💬🧠

Looking for some exciting activities to keep the kids entertained this Summer? ☀️ Look no further! Jump in at a Fun Time Splash session, kick about at a game of Footgolf or cosy up with a good old book. There’s something for everyone with Active Luton. 🎉
Some of the amazing Luton and Bedford occupation therapist having fun at the wellbeing games. 🤩🤩 @NHS_ELFT @ElftOt @GlennMMitchell @EveryoneActive
What an amazing day at the wellbeing games, our inpatient team out in force and over 250 people attending in total.
The aim of today was simple, sport and fitness for all and to use this as a helpful coping strategy for mental health issues.
Great networking with all partners 🤩
