TV interview for RGF grantee, Elliott

Figure skater, Elliott, has made an appearance on ITV news (North East) to share his story. His mum, Alison, has kindly shared the video recording of his interview with us.

Further news, Elliott has been given a great opportunity to move to Dundee to train as his coach is moving there and has invited Elliott to join him. The top skaters in the country train there so this is a fantastic step forward for Elliott. His university are supporting him to continue his degree remotely.

Also, due to the Government’s recent U-turn on ice rinks opening, Elliott has flown to Lithuania to catch up on the training he has missed out on this year.

The RGF wishes Elliott continued success!
