We were joined this morning by Paralympic High Jumper Jordan Lee.

He speaks about the impact of pushing open the door to his first basketball session and hearing the silence fall;

Of overcoming that to prove to himself and his teammates that he could be as good or better than anyone else;

Of transitioning to Paralympic athletics after meeting Jason Smyth and going to a try out for different sports;

Of becoming an ambassador with Cara

Of his hopes for the European Championships and for the Paralympic Games in Tokyo this summer…

Jordan was speaking at the launch of the Circle K ‘To Team Ireland Initiative giving the Irish public the chance to show off their creativity by drawing or writing a picture or message on a postcard in support of Team Ireland.
