About this Event
Join us to celebrate the launch of Sarah Rhind's inspiring memoir of addiction, loss, recovery, and football, Scars Under The Jersey!
Sarah Rhind survived 14 years in addiction and went on to become a footballer in Scotland’s top flight. Her remarkable life story began in the north east of Scotland as a football-loving child in a supportive family - but one who struggled with dyslexia and self-harm. Descent into drug addiction framed her early adult life, but through the years of suffering came redemption. Her association with the charity Street Soccer - and a rediscovery of her love for the beautiful game - played a key role in her recovery. Through passion and determination she rebuilt her life and is now a coach/co-ordinator with Street Soccer Scotland, where she helps improve the lives of vulnerable people through sport on a daily basis.
Sarah will be talking to her publisher, Martin Greig, about her journey through addiction and recovery, her experience of loss, the role of football in her life, and more, before signing copies of her book.
