Health Writer

Welcome to www.healthwriter.co.uk. My name is Sharon Kirby and I am a freelance writer specialising in health and fitness. I am also a website designer. I live in the UK.

Credentials

Health and fitness have featured strongly in my academic career. I hold two health related degrees from the University of Essex, which are:

  • MSc Sports Science (Fitness & Health)
  • BSc (Hons) Psychology

I possess good research skills and the ability to deal with facts and figures, along with a scientific understanding of the relationships between exercise, fitness and health.

Interests

There is always something new to research and write about in the field of health.

Of particular interest to me are the areas of nutrition and diet, exercise, weight loss, psychological health, health education, health inequalities and lifestyle management.

Philosophy

Having always abided by the philosophy that prevention is better than cure, I believe that wherever possible our lifestyle choices should dictate our level of health and general wellbeing.

Through writing about health I can put this philosophy into action. If I can spark people's curiosity and engage them in a topic, providing them with answers while encouraging them to make decisions that are right for them, it is a job well done.
