Clare's nomination story

Clare's coaches sports to many people including teaching a blind man to compete and run. She is an inspiration as she suffered from anorexiainspire those that think they cant take part in an activity.However low one may become trying a challenge chunk by chunk it becomes achievable what ever it may be.I want people to learn to accept and believe in themselvesto be proud without thinking they are boasting.Facing and challenging a long battle with eating disorders over many years has been on many occasions horrific not only for me but for my family and friends.Through love and encouragement to persue my love of sport I gradually began to see another goal.Eventually once again through encouragement I took up coaching and guiding a partially sighted runner.This is what I hope to continue to inspire and encourage.Every one.
