Dr. Hussain Al-Zubaidi

Movement, community & nutrition are three cornerstones of Dr Hussain's personal & professional life. He is a lifestyle medic & long-distance triathlete based in the UK. He has a varied portfolio career across different sectors. He is a TV doctor on channel 4, the Royal College of GPs lifestyle & physical activity lead as well as a SWIM England clinical adviser. He runs a pioneering NHS based fitness club & lifestyle clinic helping to educate & support patients to eat better, move more & connect with their community.  He heads up the social prescribing team at the Leamington primary care network which assists people holistically to promote, protect & improve their health. A key passion is to use lifestyle to tackle health inequalities, volunteering at the mental health charity Run Talk Run as the West Midlands regional leader, where he uses movement to help forge conversations & peers support. It is his strong belief that lifestyle can be a powerful tool in the fight against many conditions both physical and mental, while being a great way to socialise and stay connected with our community. He is a keen triathlete & UK Athletics leader in running fitness and tries to use his own personal journey of taking up physical activity from a previous sedentary lifestyle & improvement in his own nutrition & knowledge of food to promote its benefits for our wellbeing. I deliver numerous talks & lectures to various audiences both professional & public including a regular slot on the channel 4 show #stephspackedlunch.
