There were so many strong contenders up for this award and so I am truly humbled to have received it. I would like to thank the Change4Life British Asian Sports Awards for giving myself and others a platform to showcase our talent. It’s been a great year for women in sport and I hope that this award can inspire more women to get actively involved in sports.”

The partnership between The British Asian Sports Awards and Change4Life sees a move to increasing awareness of the importance of eating well amongst the South Asian community, where dietary related illnesses, such as type 2 Diabetes, are much higher than the national average. The charity auction on the night also raised thousands of pounds for The British Asian Trust.
