Clare Paling

Clare is the Public Health Project Officer for Work and Health at Westmorland and Furness Council.

Having worked in health and leisure roles over her career, Clare has come to know that motivation is over-rated when it comes to exercise: but she was shocked by the ‘empathy gap’ that We Are Undefeatable highlighted in their report ‘Bridging the Gap’. The report shows how much of a barrier pain is for people with long term health conditions when it comes to being more active.

With this in mind, Clare wanted to learn more: and she says Flippin’ Pain had the answers!

In her spare time, Clare enjoys spending time with her family, exercising, dancing and playing cricket.
