📣 Calling all @uniofbath Student Performance Athlete

Looking after your #MentalHealth is just as important as your physical health, which is why we have teamed up with @sprtingwellness to provide free #MentalWellbeing support to all our #StudentPerformanceAthletes 🧠

@Dan_Nash94 Not many, that’s why you have the top 8 criteria 😉 it’s a complex topoc with lots of facets. Think UKA main failure is actually in comms & getting people on board!

[Louis Richards @Louis__Richards]

@Dan_Nash94 Yeah agree. The other (more controversial?) perspective is Oly/WC etc are pinnacle performance events so that should be focus not experience…

[Louis Richards @Louis__Richards]

@Dan_Nash94 It’s a zero sums game. I would say these decisions are often budget driven. Getting teams to events is expensive, budgets are limited. Can only speak from own experience in NGB, would like to offer more opp but where does the money come form to do it?

@robtownsendPhD @ParalympicsNZ Wait until they find out you are a triathlete!

Really nice moment as Team Wales para-triathlete sees his wife and kids at the end of the men’s PTVI race.

Jones, 42, finished fourth alongside guide Rhys James and became Wales' first para-triathlete to compete at a Commonwealths.

Really enjoyed being part of the @WelshTriathlon team for the day of activity at @Parcbrynbach today.

Fantastic to see an NGB being innovative in its delivery of inclusive activities for all abilities and ages.
