great chat with Stephen, great points talked about which needed to be talked about.
I remember having just moved to the UK back in 2004, and not feeling settled at all, and being bullied at school there, watching te Olympics gave me courage to not get pushed around being bullied. Making all th way to the final, also he commonwealth games which followed after, brought me great pride and great joy.
Thank you Stephen Buckland, I now also am a qualified Personal Trainer and these achievements being a push for my interests in the sports fields.
