Today was my last day as a Lecturer at Leeds Beckett Uni. Over my 6+ years here, I learned a great deal & made life long friends. While it is sad to go, I’m excited for the next chapter in my life & look forward to a new job and new experiences in the New Year #bringonthenewyear

Christensen et al - ‘less than 35% of adolescents used greenspaces / PA facilities nearest their home or school. Approx. 50% of time spent in PA did not occur within the home / school / PA facility / greenspace’ ⁦⁦@alchristensen12journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…


🚨New Paper 🚨 Excited to have another paper published in @PLOSONE Builds on our previous papers around the inadequacy of using buffer methods to measure PA spaces. Take a look here: journals.plos.org/plosone/articl…

A study aimed at helping those going through #perimenopause is looking for volunteers. Research by @novadsmith from @BeckettSocSci will examine the role that strength and conditioning exercise plays in helping people manage their transition - ow.ly/M73950KbmrW #menopause
