Re: Local Torchbearer, in Wigan on Thursday 31st

I hadn't heard of Hazel's excellent achievement which as far as I know was not reported in the local press. The Special Olympics are an excellent organisation for providing opportunities for those with intellectual disabilities. Very well done Hazel-you deserve to carry the torch.

Hazel says thank you. She considers carrying the torch to be a great honour - her family and friends are proud of her. Her part of the torch relay starts at 4.32pm in Rodney Street. Please come along and support her.
