Paralympics: Borders Pair Stephen Clegg and Sammi Kinghorn Both in Medals for GB

Paralympic Success for Borders Duo

Stephen Clegg and Sammi Kinghorn, both from the Scottish Borders, have won medals for Great Britain at the Tokyo Paralympics.

Clegg, a former pupil at Peebles High School, won a bronze medal in the men's road cycling time trial C4.

Kinghorn, who is from Kelso, won a silver medal in the women's road cycling time trial B.

Both athletes have overcome significant challenges to achieve their success.

Clegg was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 2011, while Kinghorn was born with spina bifida.

The medals are a proud moment for the Borders region, which has a strong history of sporting success.

Both Clegg and Kinghorn are role models for young people with disabilities, showing that anything is possible with hard work and determination.
