Hi everyone,

My name is Matt, and I’m excited to introduce myself as the new Fitness Centre Team Leader. I’m sure many of you already know me from my time at the Fitness Centre, but for those who don’t, I’ve been part of the Durham University team for the past 6.5 years, working as a Senior Fitness Advisor.

During that time, I’ve had the pleasure of supporting our members, working alongside a fantastic team, and helping to create a welcoming and inclusive fitness environment. I’m now looking forward to taking on this new role and building on those experiences.

With over 20 years of experience in the fitness industry, I’m passionate about helping people enjoy being active and making fitness accessible to everyone. My focus will be on continuing to develop opportunities for both our students and the wider community to get involved, whether that’s through an exciting new group exercise timetable, engaging fitness events, or new initiatives that encourage people to stay active and connected.

I’m also passionate about supporting our team. I want to bring together our existing colleagues and new team members, creating a positive environment where everyone feels valued, supported, and able to grow professionally.

By sharing my operational knowledge and experience, I hope to help strengthen our team’s performance while continuing to deliver the excellent service our members expect.

I’m really looking forward to working with everyone and playing apart in the success of The Fitness Centre. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch - I’m always here to help!
