Meet a Changemaker: Tim Wood

Six years ago, Tim spent a period in a hospital and realised on coming out that his lifestyle choices had contributed to it. That was a turning point for him, and he became passionate about physical and mental wellbeing – for himself and for others. He loves being involved in his local community, and is a trustee at NEWway, as well as volunteering once a week at a winter night shelter. Since the pandemic, he has been trying to get older people to move more – by organising walks, meeting people at the gym and encouraging people around him to get out.
