Olympic bobsleigh and athletics star to visit Bentworth school

WINTER Olympics bobsleigh star and former Olympics sprinter Montell Douglas is to visit St Mary’s Bentworth CE Primary School.

She will support the post-lockdown mental and physical health of its 107 pupils by holding a workshop on March 30 – putting them through their paces in physical activities, giving an inspirational talk, showing them her medals and answering their questions.

The school wants to raise £600 to buy sports equipment and fund after-school clubs. It has a page on Crowdfunder. To donate visit www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/st-marys-bentworth-cofe-primary-school-fundraiser
