Stephen Simpson

A resilient and proactive Sport & Exercise Science graduate with a unique background in mental health and occupational wellbeing. I possess a proven ability to analyze complex community needs and take the initiative to design bespoke physical activity solutions. Having successfully pitched and established a new physical activity role within the Priory Group, I demonstrate the entrepreneurial mindset and strategic planning skills essential for a Sports Development Officer.

I am a dedicated "self-starter" who thrives under pressure, combining clinical insight with a passion for driving inclusive participation.
