"Aiming High" - with Chelsey Logan (from Killyleagh) - Education Project Officer at Brentford Football Club - on the Chris Scott Show, FM105 Down Community Radio - Wednesday 7th September 2022 (7-8pm)
This week Chris is in conversation with 24 year-old Chelsey Logan from Killyleagh, County Down, Northern Ireland who works with Brentford Football Club as an Education Project Officer. Chelsey, who was interviewed recently on BBC Radio London, is a former pupil at Blackwater Integrated College and SERC Downpatrick. She talks to Chris about her journey from school to University and her career path to date.
In 2017 she attended St Marys University Twickenham where she graduated in 2020 with a BSc(Hons) in Coaching, Science and Physical Education.
Chelsey commenced her career as an Educational Tutor with Harlequins Rugby Club, a premiership club based in London. She delivered BTEC and GCSE qualifications to a range of NEET and Special Needs learners aged 16-20 years old.
In March 2021 Chelsey continued to follow her dreams and accepted the position of Education Programme Coordinator with Brentford.
Chelsey has never forgotten her roots.
“If it wasn’t for Blackwater and its teaching staff, I wouldn’t have found my passion for sports and education which enabled me to further my own education and find my dream job.”
When asked about a word of encouragement for those who are following behind Chelsey told Chris - "Just don't let anybody stand in your way and tell you that you can't do something, because if you really put your mind to it and put the hours of practice, not just in sport but in education or in anything you want to do, then you will reap the rewards after that...."
She is certainly an inspiration to those young people who want to follow their dreams!
