Katy Hubbard – Physical Activity Navigator

My name is Katy Hubbard and I am the Physical Activity Navigator for Surrey Coalition.

I grew up in Sussex and after a few years living and working in London settled in Surrey with my husband and 2 children. I love being out in our beautiful countryside whether that be walking, running, cycling or even swimming – not necessarily all at the same time, although a triathlon or two has been known! I also try to fit in some yoga throughout the week to stretch everything out.

I haven’t always been active – I rediscovered exercise in my early 30’s when I started running, primarily for weight loss. I soon realised that not only was I feeling physically healthier, but my mood improved, my confidence increased, new friendships were made, and existing ones deepened. Being part of those communities really helped me throughout 2020.

When I’m not exercising or spending time with the kids I can be found curled up on the sofa with a bar of chocolate and Line of Duty on the tv!

I've not been out for ages; it was really lovely to get out.
