Making a difference – One Individual at a time
An update from RGF grantee and European Champion, Ashley
Powerlifter, Ashley, contacted the RGF earlier this year as she needed funding to attend the European Bench Press Championships in Luxembourg. Well, it’s safe to say it went rather well. Ashley emailed us to say: “At the end of August 2019 I competed in Luxembourg, representing GBR in the European Under 84KG Bench Press Championships. Going on to win that competition and becoming European Champion was more than I could have hoped for. Without the help of the RGF I could not have made that dream come true and never have fulfilled my potential. I am extremely grateful for the RGF and the support they have given me. Thank you once again, I can’t say enough how grateful I am!”
Congratulations Ashley – an amazing achievement and the result of a huge amount of dedication and commitment on your part. We’re all very proud of you!
