33% of British Paralympic medallists in Beijing were part of an elite funded

programme for less than 2 years
15 of the British gold medals were won by first time Paralympians
If you or someone you know has got what it takes to be part of the ParalympicsGB

team in 2012 get involved at www.uksport.gov.uk/talent by 11th January 2010

*****************************************************************

If anyone follows this up and gets selected, how about doing a “Paralympic 2012 Training Blog” for the Website?

It’d be fascinating to hear first-hand what’s involved in training for and competing in these wonderful Games and a great inspiration for amputees starting out on their own journeys back to fitness.

Please contact me on:wendy@llic.design2.coreware.co.uk if you’d like to be involved
