Last week, @LauraSugar1 was doing what she does best...getting young people moving!
Alongside @DRETsport , the double Paralympic Champion made her way to @lodgeparkacad to work with a group of primary schools as they all prepare their athletics for the exciting #DRETSummerCup.

Lovely to meet you, hopefully this is the start of making big changes for the PE curriculum in schools across the country 🙂

Lovely to meet @LauraSugar1 champion canoeist also of @Upp_Sport along with the mighty @Tanni_GT and Martin of @ParalympicsGB at @C4Paralympics event in Parliament with @Channel4
Shocking that 75% disabled kids do no PE. Will feed the data into @CommonsCMS enquiry on subject

Important to note that i’m definitely not talking about the games themselves. Im talking about the national governing bodies in charge of the british teams and athletes, it is already combined in other countries and from what I’ve seen, it seems to have had amazing results

Is it finally about time @TeamGB and @ParalympicsGB think about merging??
Can only imagine improving equality would be easier?
Seems to work for countries like @TeamUSA
?

It’s sad that we as Paralympians feel the need to speak out about equality so often, and great @shawzac for speaking out, especially as his team mate who he trains with every day was treated differently, I in fact ‘gatecrashed’ the event with a few of my teammates and….. 1/2
Hi @Fortnums 👋 as you’re aware, the Olympic and Paralympic medalists were invited to Buckingham Palace yesterday. It would be nice to understand why you hosted an after party for the Olympic medalists but made the decision not to invite the Paralympic medalists? Why? 😅😅

Spoke personally to the CEO Tom Ashton who was very nice and apologetic about the situation, and I’m not sure @Fortnums were aware we were all together at the reception. This goes down to a bigger issue of the huge gap between Team GB and Paralympics GB (yes they are separate)..

Yes ‘Team GB’ only refers to Olympians and we as Paralympians are supposed to correct when they call us Team Gb and say ‘actually we’re not’. The point about Thursdays reception was that we were all invited together, however with regards to uniform and after events it’s separated
