A Gateshead nurse is using her love of outdoor sports and adventure to help boost the health and wellbeing of her hospital colleagues.
Extroverted single mum Fior Sayer, from Lobley Hill, loves a good old hike when she's not working at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Even during the pandemic, she kept up her regular walks and runs in order to let off steam.
Now the 40-year-old is aiming to improve the health and wellbeing of other NHS staff member after realising the negative impacts the coronavirus pandemic had on many people's mental health. Last year in March 2021 after the third lockdown, she started to see a lot of staff feeling isolated and not going outside as much.
