As some of you know last year SpineWorks sponsored disabled athlete Vicki Hansford who was selected to represent the UK in rowing.  In 2007 she won silver at the World Rowing Championships. 

To our delight Vicki returned  from the 2008 Beijing Paralympic Games with a Bronze in the LTA coxed fours.  What an achievement and very well deserved.    She has now returned to her job as Sports Development Officer at Surrey University and is aiming to compete in the 2012 Paralympic Games so watch this space!

Thank you to all of you who sponsored Vicki over the last couple of years she really appreciated the support!!
