It's time for Equal Play ✊ ParalympicsGB is today launching a campaign calling for equal access to PE and school sport for disabled children. Shockingly, just one in four say they currently take part in sport at school. My son deserves better. #ParalympicsGB | #EqualPlay

In the past I was lead to believe it was gold or nothing, That bronze was not good enough. I’m working hard to rectify this. Winning a medal of any colour is not easy at a Paralympics. I’ve fought hard for each and every medal and I’m proud of my 3 bronzes ParalympicsGB

Just wanted to share a lovely comment we received when Neil Fachie OBE shared this photo. We may have won bronze and silver, but Fraser is our Gold. The truth of it made me cry.

Considering I woke up in a different country to my pilot the fact that we made it to the start line of the road race today at the world champs is an achievement in itself. Finishing 6th wasn’t what we hoped for but we made the best of it and couldn’t have done any more.

The majority of my life has been spent expecting more from myself I need to be stronger, faster, more powerful, more confident, win more medals. I lost sight of I am enough as I am. No one is more suited to the role of Lora than me. Here’s to a fresh start of being enough.
