Paralympic star set for university event

PARALYMPIC swimmer Charlotte Henshaw will be among the panelists speaking at a series of events on diversity in sport events at the University of Nottingham.

She will be joined by Wheelchair Tennis Federation manager Mark Bullock and British Paralympic Association chairman Tim Reddish on Wednesday, May 21.

The series aims to highlight the experiences of minority groups in sport.

Each event will see speakers sharing their observations, including why more Muslim women are taking up sport, how the London 2012 Olympics changed women's football, and experiencing top-level competition as a disabled athlete.

There will be a Q&A session for the audience. Further events will take place later this month and early next.

Claire Henson, equality and diversity events coordinator at the university, said: "We're delighted to welcome such a high profile and diverse group of speakers to the university."
