In this episode of the Learning Journeys Podcast, we are joined by former World and European Champion rower and now Prisoners Manager for a brilliant programme called Boats not Bars, Imogen Walsh. Imogen shares her journey from messing about in boats through to her unusual entry to the GB rowing programme, becoming World and European Champion, the disappointment of missing out on Rio 2016 and the journey after that doing international development work and now leading a programme supporting ex-prisoners through the power of sport. Funny, heart-breaking, uplifting and inspiring - well worth a listen!
