Josie Pearson to Open Community Fair

Josie Pearson has confirmed that she will open the Hay Community Fair at Hay Castle on the 29th September.  The paralympian won a gold medal in the  F51/52/53 discus on Friday and also broke the world record in each of her first three throws.  She won by a huge margin, and Hay has been buzzing since the event.  Those who know her were not totally surprised by her success, but are overjoyed for her.  I am sure she will be a source of inspiration for many people for many years to come, and she will receive a hero's welcome when she returns home.
