Manisha shares a fantastic quote and clearly demonstrates how she has lived by it.
"If the flower doesn't bloom then you change the environment in which it grows"
Without giving too much away see below for a little more about our special guest.
Manisha Tailor MBE is a former Deputy Headteacher, having worked in primary education for 19 years. She qualified as a Headteacher in 2011, but shortly after this embarked upon a career change due to personal circumstance. This led her to the next chapter in her life, setting up her company, Swaggarlicious Ltd and building a career in football, stemed from her childhood passion.
Manisha became a young carer 22 years ago, along with her family caring for her twin brother who suffered a mental breakdown as a result of bullying and trauma. This inspired her to develop work around mental health for adults and children, publishing a teaching resource titled, Child in Mind, that promotes open dialogue around mental health through pictures, poems and stories. Manisha recognises the important role sport can play as a vehicle for positive mental health, developing relationships and both physical and emotional literacy.
Alongside this, she works fulltime at QPR's academy as Lead Foundation Phase Coach, overseeing the U9-U11 age groups in addition to coaching in the Youth Development Phase.
