What is your job role here at Goodwood?

I am the Goodwood Bar & Grill Manager which means I work as part of the restaurant team looking after our members, hotel guests and customers who visit the Bar & Grill or the Health & Wellbeing Members Lounge. 

What do you enjoy about working at the Health Club?

Even though the Bar & Grill is not part of the Health Club, I see it as the community hub of the hotel. Where members come after their classes to enjoy a coffee and have that well needed social time with their friends in the club lounge. It is really important for me to see that our members are enjoying their Members Parties that are held in Bar & Grill and the team here supporting that too to make a better Goodwood for everyone. Even though I’m still relatively new to the role, I’m excited for the change and prosperous future for Bar & Grill and can’t wait to engage more with the members and be a friendly face for them to talk to.

What kind of sports/fitness/wellbeing do you enjoy?

I used to swim when I was younger, and I love the fact that after work I can swim in the pool and have access to all these amazing facilities and classes that Goodwood have to offer. I try my best to engage in the One Goodwood opportunities that arise too to stay active and happy, both physically and mentally.

What is the most unusual thing you have ever had to do here at Goodwood? 

Not so much unusual but quite funny, during Festival Of Speed in the summer, I was serving the outside bar we had up in the evenings when the football was on. The final of the World Cup where England were playing Spain, I did have many guests and visitors be amazed at how high I could stack my plastic cups! At least double my height! Festival Of Speed was a brilliant atmosphere to be around and to see members enjoying the outside space we used was brilliant to see.

What does Health & Wellbeing mean to you?

Health & Wellbeing to me is all about having that Third Space. You have life, work and your third space. For me to be able to relax in the sauna after a hard week, or enjoy that soft peppermint tea at the end of the day to recalibrate all the things in life and keep calm and carry on! Switch off from daily life and have some time to myself is so important for everyone, both physically and mentally.
