Switch The Play: Rob Young's Strategies for Post-Sport Success

This week, we're joined by Rob Young, MBE, the CEO of Switch The Play, a charity that assists professional athletes in transitioning to civilian life. Rob shares his journey from his childhood in Norwich to working on the legacy of the London 2012 Olympics and eventually setting up Switch The Play. Dan and Rob discuss the challenges athletes face when their sports careers end, the importance of developing transferable skills, and the role of sports in bridging societal gaps. Rob also highlights the holistic approach his charity takes in supporting athletes in aspects such as identity, mental wellbeing and financial stability.
