Sports Dietitian: Performance Nutrition for Athletes and Active People
Whether you're training for your first event, chasing a PB, or fitting double sessions around work, I'll help you build a fuelling plan that fits your sport and your life. Online across the UK, or in-person in Cornwall.
How I can help you fuel better
Fuelling for Training
Eating enough at the right times to get the most from every session. This includes heavy training days and periodised nutrition.
Race and match day
A race fuelling plan for before, during and after, practised in training so your gut is ready, including personalised hydration guidance.
Recovery
Carbs, protein, and fluids to maximise recovery and adaptation, so you can hit your next session or race hard.
Supplements
What may be worth taking, what isn't, and how to stay safe with anti-doping rules.
Sports nutrition for every sport and every level
I work with athletes and active people across all sports, from weekend warriors to elite competitors. Here are a few I see often:
Hyrox and Hybrid Events
Fuelling demanding hybrid training blocks, race day nutrition, recovering between back-to-back sessions, and appropriate use of supplements.
Surfing
Fuelling long and cold-water sessions and dawn starts, quick snacks and hydration between heats, and keeping your energy up on surf trips.
Young athletes (11+)
Enough energy for growth as well as training, practical food for school days and match days, and parents involved in every session.
Team sports
Nutrition for training and match days, recovery between fixtures, timing carbs and protein around sessions, and eating well when travelling for away games.
Your sport?
Swimming, climbing, racket sports, combat sports, dance or the gym: a fuelling plan built around your sport's demands, your training schedule and your goals.
Endurance (running, triathlon, cycling)
Carbohydrate periodisation to match your training load, in-race fuelling and gut training, hydration and electrolytes, and avoiding low energy availability.

"Dietitian" is a protected title, regulated by the HCPC. Dietitians are also clinically trained. If you have health concerns alongside performance goals, a dietitian can support both. Furthermore, dietitians have specific training in aspects of nutrition such as blood interpretation, symptoms, and often link in with multidisciplinary teams such as your GP.

Yes. Whether it's your first 10k or you're competing at a high level, good fuelling matters.

That depends on what you think you need! Sometimes I will co-create prescriptive meal plans with individuals I work with, or give portion size guidance, specific race-day plans or individual goals. Each plan is always tailored to you and I never give out standard plans.
