I will be climbing the three peaks with a group of coaches and parents to raise awareness of the growing problem in the Hull area and to run development in rugby league across different countries with the Great Britain teachers.

Today nearly a third of children aged 2 to 15 are overweight or obese , and younger generations are becoming obese at earlier ages and staying obese for longer. Reducing obesity levels will save lives as obesity doubles the risk of dying prematurely. Obese adults are seven times more likely to become a type 2 diabetic than adults of a healthy weight which may cause blindness or limb amputation. And not only are obese people more likely to get physical health conditions like heart disease, they are also more likely to be living with conditions like depression.

Helping raise money to host activities which will increase participation in Rugby league and see development for people all ages having a positive effect on the physical and mental state
