Christine Tse
My name is Christine, and I joined Sport 4 Life in December 2022. This job is my very first role in the UK and I feel so fortunate to be working with such a wonderful organisation. Although I have never worked in a charity organisation before, I am excited to join a team of professionals who are dedicated to making a difference in people’s lives. From what I have learned about Sport 4 Life, they have a fantastic reputation for empowering young people through sports and helping them reach their full potential. I am looking forward to contributing to this mission by utilising my skills and experience. I have always been someone who values a friendly and supportive work environment, and I have no doubt that Sport 4 Life will provide just that.

Hi, I’m Cheryl, and I am so excited to have joined Sport 4 Life as the Data & Insight Officer.
I embarked on my journey with Sport 4 Life in February 2024. My professional path has been diverse, having transitioned from events and project management roles across sectors such as hospitality and events before moving into the charity sector. Previously, I dedicated over five years to YMCA Heart of England, where I spearheaded initiatives to empower young individuals facing homelessness, fostering their employability skills through the organisation’s social enterprises. Transitioning into data was a natural progression for me, I’ve always been curious, drawn to the numbers and questioning how and why everything works.
Sport 4 Life’s commitment to nurturing and guiding young people resonates profoundly with me. Though my current role may not involve direct engagement with them, the knowledge that our collective efforts contribute to their growth and development is immensely gratifying. I can now marry my two passions: data and advocacy to drive tangible change.
The emphasis on QUALITY as a cornerstone principle underscores the organisation’s dedication to not only meeting but surpassing expectations. I firmly believe that by embodying this value, we not only honour our commitment to the young people we serve but also inspire them to strive for greatness in their own lives.
An interesting fact about me – I find immense joy in exploring the globe, venturing into cultures off the beaten track. I am a nomad at heart and hate staying in one place for too long. Every journey has enriched my perspective and continues to fuel my passion for travel. My most recent escapade led me to South Korea, and I can’t wait to discover where my next adventure will take me.

Hi! I’m Heidi, the Marketing Coordinator at Sport 4 Life. As part of my role, I am responsible for creating compelling content, implementing strategic plans across social media, and creating communication campaigns.
What drew me to Sport 4 Life was my passion for sports. My journey led me to become a professional dancer, performing on national stages across the country. This experience gave me a deep appreciation for the transformative power of sports and the positive impact it can have on individuals’ lives.
Another reason I was eager to join Sport 4 Life was due to my personal journey through education. As someone who decided not to pursue the traditional university route, I faced challenges in finding external support and guidance for alternative options. Now, I am thrilled to be part of an organisation that not only provides those alternative pathways but allows me to actively promote and spread this message!

With over a decade of experience at Sport 4 Life UK, I have had the opportunity to work across various departments, starting as a volunteer and progressing to my current role as National Partnership Manager. My journey has given me extensive experience in mentoring young people (ages 11-29), guiding them into education, training, and employment, while also focusing on maintaining and growing strong partnerships with several job centres and training providers ensuring that young people are connected with the right services and support.
Throughout my career at Sport 4 Life, I’ve worked in multiple areas of the organisation, from sports coaching and outreach recruitment to coordinating sports sessions in new communities. I’ve led residentials for young people, delivered sports leadership qualifications in schools and the community, and occasionally facilitated female-only groups. Additionally, I have experience in delivering employability programmes for young people aged 16+, enhancing local collaborations and partnerships, and had the privilege of working in Lyon, France for 10 days on behalf of Sport 4 Life. Recently, I was nominated as a finalist for Frontline Advisor of the Year at the ERSA Awards, recognising my dedication and commitment to supporting young people.
My current role is centered around partnership management, ensuring that the young people we serve are provided with the essential opportunities to succeed and progress in education, training, and employment.
Beyond work, I love travelling, with a particular obsession for East Asia—especially Japan and South Korea. Their rich culture, history, and innovation inspire me, and I always seek ways to integrate new perspectives into my lifestyle.

Hi Everyone, I am so happy to have the opportunity to work for Sport 4 Life! I have had various jobs in finance mostly for large organisations. I first heard about Sport 4 Life many years ago and always admired what they do for young people. I am so pleased to have joined the team as their values align with mine. Although I am not directly involved with young people in my role it is great to be part of an awesome team that are so passionate about improving the lives of young people.
A few years ago I had the opportunity to be a senior officer of a committee that helped to make a difference in the lives of young children and families and the role gave me a thirst for helping people. I am looking forward to supporting the Sport 4 Life team in any way that I can in my role as Finance Officer.
A little bit more about me. Sport was a very huge part of my life growing up. I enjoyed it so much and had the opportunity to play at county level.
