I have always been passionate about bringing yoga to and sharing its benefits with communities with little access to yoga and well-being programmes. In 2018 I started a community yoga class, which gained funding to bring affordable yoga classes to a local community centre in Barrhead. The goal was for the community to take ownership of the class, and it is now a community interest company, The Unwind Project CIC.

The Unwind Project CIC’s main aim is to take yoga to people in less traditional areas, bringing yoga and its benefits (both physical and mental) to the local community. The CIC promotes access to physical activity (yoga), mindfulness and meditation practices, and other well-being practices.
