A letter from our founder
Why I started The Daisy Collective UK
Sometimes the most important discoveries come from the most unexpected places.
When I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, something suddenly made sense. Without realising it, I had been managing my ADHD through exercise my whole life. Movement wasn't just something I did — it was something I needed. It was regulating me, grounding me, keeping me well.
When my son was diagnosed and wanted to start exercising, I went looking for the right class for him. I wanted somewhere inclusive, somewhere thoughtfully designed, somewhere he would genuinely belong. And I couldn't find it.
So I decided to build it.
That's The Daisy Collective UK. Born from personal experience, built with specialist knowledge, and driven by one simple belief — that every child deserves to find movement they love.
Not because it burns calories or builds fitness targets. But because a child who finds movement they love carries it with them for life. Into adolescence, into adulthood, into everything. It helps their heart. It helps their mind. It helps with everything in between.
My son is autistic and group classes aren't always easy for him. I know what it feels like to scan a room and wonder if your child will be okay in there. At The Daisy Collective UK, I design every session so that every child — every single one — can walk through the door and belong.
