Henry Smith MP has today urged local residents to get behind Maidenbower resident, Ben Jesson, ahead of this Thursday’s shooting events following his selection for Team GB.
Henry commented:
“With the Paralympic Games kicking off on Wednesday and the shooting events scheduled to commence the following day, let’s make sure we’re all vocally backing Ben to win big on behalf of the whole town and Team GB during the 2012 London Paralympic Games.
“It must be a huge honour to have been chosen to represent our country at the Games shooting event and I am sure that it has taken considerable hard, dedicated training on his part.
“Ben’s story will be an inspiration to people locally and nationally; I have written to wish him all the very best on behalf of the town and look forward to following his success.”
