DKH Legacy Trust

Anna works closely with the DKH Legacy trust as a harnessing talent athlete but also as a board member for the Performer Steering Group.  The trust was set up by Dame Kelly Holmes and their aim is to, ‘inspire young people to find and fulfil their potential in sport or in life through our workforce of elite sport performers’.

The trust provides support to elite performers who are making the transition from professional sport into new careers, whilst at the same time making the most of their skills and experience by working with inspiring young people through various projects such as ‘Inspiring Lives’ and ‘Inspiring Sport’.

Anna says, ‘the trust is a fantastic idea, which address some really key areas. When I decided to retire from sport it was reassuring to have an organisation available to provide support and advice as I embarked on a new career path. I am passionate about ‘giving back’ to sport and am delighted to be able to use my experience and knowledge and share it with up and coming talented athletes of the future. Being involved in the BT Backing Talent events has been great fun and hugely rewarding. It’s also an honour to be a member of the steering group, to work with like-minded people and help drive the shape and future of an organisation that I truly believe in. The work that the DKH Legacy Trust does is inspiring and invaluable.’
