We’re very proud of team member Hannah Taunton who will be representing GB in the World Para-athletics Championship which is being held in Dubai from 7^th to 15^th November. Hannah will be competing in the 1500 metres in the T20 category. Hannah’s personal best of 4 minutes 39.36 seconds currently ranks her third in the world in her category. This will be her debut in the Championship.

Hannah grew up in Taunton and attended Castle School. Coached by Charlotte Fisher, Hannah is well known as a runner locally having previously won the Taunton 10K and half marathon. She’s been a member of our plant area team at our Taunton garden centre since September 2016. Her colleague Abbie Lee says she is a truly inspirational young lady!

Everyone at Otter would like to wish Hannah the very best of luck. Fingers crossed for a medal!
