Sarah Atkinson

Sarah is a West Midlands Programme Officer.

Having volunteered and worked in schools since sixth form, Sarah enjoys interacting with young people and helping them achieve their goals.

Before joining CoachBright, Sarah studied Sport and Exercise Sciences at the University of Birmingham, and then trained as a primary school teacher during Covid-19, which highlighted to her the inequalities within education, seeing hard-working children that wanted to learn, not having the resources at home to access education. Now she is determined to help young people achieve their aspirations, regardless of their background. 

In her free time, Sarah is passionate about sports, especially athletics and yoga, and loves to cheer on her home nation (Wales) in rugby!
