I and S SSP evolved into Sport Impact in 2011 and he has led the organisation throughout. Alan is also a Senior Tutor for the Youth Sport Trust Learning Academy, a primary school governor and Chair of Generations Active BFH an innovative initiative in partnership with Laureas, Nike and the GLA that works to meet community physical activity needs in the Bedfont, Hanworth and Feltham area. Most recently Alan co-founded The Schools Active Movement, an organisation that helps to champion school sport at government level and brings together like minded organisations from across the country to communicate, advocate and share.
Physical Education had a huge impact on Alan’s development personally and he has witnessed how effective a tool it can be in changing young people’s life for the better.
Alan is particularly proud to lead a team of highly professional and dedicated, teaching and coaching staff who support schools and their teachers as well as providing high quality competition and physical activity opportunities appropriate for all young people in Hounslow and beyond.
At the end of the Sport Impact day Alan enjoys running and exercise and being with family.
Alan was fortunate to be involved in mentoring Mo Farah from an early age and particularly admires the way he utilised hard work to achieve spectacularly impressive goals.
