Scottish Disability Sport is delighted to welcome Iona McKay to the post of GOGA Tayside Programme Manager and Lynsey Gerrie to the post of GOGA Tayside Programme Administrator.
Iona McKay
Hello, I’m Iona and I am the new Get Out Get Active (GOGA) Programme Manager in Tayside. I’m very much looking forward to building upon the great work that has already been implemented, whilst also seeking to develop new opportunities to encourage physical activity.
I have a professional background in working with a range of people within health and criminal justice, and I have experience and understanding of public health, particularly addressing inequalities and promoting positive health and wellbeing outcomes.
I have a particular interest in athletics, having competed at UK and Scottish level over 800m as a junior. I enjoy coastal walks as well as group exercise classes including Zumba, Step and HIIT. I am also an enthusiastic beginner at flamenco and skiing!
Lynsey Gerrie
Hello! I’m Lynsey and I’m excited to have recently begun in the role of GOGA Tayside Administrator. From the short time I have been in the role, it is amazing to see how many opportunities have been provided to so many people through GOGA, and I look forward to being a part of the team that expands on this.
My background is in events management with a main focus/interest in physical activity and sports, including working at the Euros at Hampden in 2021.
I have an interest in football, which I played for many years before leaving due to injury. I also enjoy hillwalking, camping, running and yoga, although the majority of my “spare” time is spent running around after my little girl!
