AES26219 - Callum Simpson
Callum Simpson

I am currently enrolled in a course about food, nutrition and health. I chose this course because I have always been really interested in how nutrition affects the body, especially when it comes to sport and athletic performance. As a para swimmer and athlete, what I eat plays a big role in how I train, recover and compete, so I wanted to learn more about how to properly fuel my body.

While I am very committed to my education and personal development, balancing paid work alongside high-performance sport and study is challenging. Financial assistance reduces the pressure of needing to work while studying and training and supports both my educational goals and my development as a Para athlete.
