This month, we’re thrilled to shine a spotlight on Ellie, our Move With Us Move Maker for August, whose energy, kindness, and leadership have made a lasting impact across multiple Active Essex programmes.
At just 13 years old, Ellie has already shown the qualities of a true role model. Through her involvement with B-Wild Adventures and the Girls Inspired Colchester course, she’s consistently gone above and beyond to support others, embrace new challenges, and create a welcoming environment for everyone around her.
From day one at B-Wild, Ellie stood out as someone who leads with empathy and enthusiasm. Whether it’s helping shy new members feel included, assisting with snack time and lunch prep, or simply being a friendly face in the group, Ellie’s contributions have made a real difference. Her creativity, positivity, and willingness to take initiative have not only impressed her peers but also inspired her mentors.
Christina from B-Wild Adventures described Ellie as “a shining star” and “an absolute joy to be around” and we couldn’t agree more. Her ability to uplift others and her natural leadership skills show a maturity well beyond her years.
Ellie, we hope this recognition helps you see the incredible impact you’re having. You truly embody what it means to be a Move Maker, someone who inspires movement, confidence, and connection in others.
