Hope Virgo is a mental health campaigner, author and runner.

We studied at undergraduate level back in Birmingham almost 10 years ago.

We reconnected recently and I nabbed some of her time for you lovely people.

We covered:

Her journey through anorexia.
Her mental health campaigning in schools around the country.
Her running and how beneficial it is as a mental health tool.
Her #dumbthescales campaign.

Her work ethic and enthusiasm is infectious.

Definitively keep up with everything she is doing:
