International Paralympian Ambassador Programme launches
7 February 2008
Britain's Tanni Grey-Thompson has been chosen to be part of the International Paralympic Committee's new Ambassador Programme.
Eleven athletes from around the world have been chosen for the programme so far. Their aim is to promote the Paralympic Movement and become role models for young people with and without a disability.
The top Paralympians have all competed in either Summer or Winter Games, winning medals for their country without the help of doping. They were recommended by their National Paralympic Committee for being positive role models.
