Interested in reading about Phil's journey ? - @IrishTimes caught up with him to talk about how sport and shooting gave him a focus in life and the wheelchair he plans to showcase in #Tokyo2020.
Phil kicks things off on the 30th of August ๐ฎ๐ช

PSA: the Olympics is nearly over and we all got incredibly excited/entertained throughout the 15 days. So, could we try showing that same excitement for the Paralympics as well? Prove to everyone that the Paralympics deserve equal coverage, funding and excitement as the Olympics.

Phil Eaglesham was determined to prove a point to himself and his children that there is always a way out of tough situations.
Phil's beard grew, and so too did the conversations on mental health: bit.ly/34FKy3C
