GB Olympic sprinter Laura Turner visits Weald Middle School in Harrow
8:50am Friday 25th January 2013 in News By Emma Innes
An Olympic sprinter will be visiting a Harrow school today to help it raise money for PE lessons.
Laura Turner, who represented Great Britain in the 2008 Olympics, will be visiting Weald Middle School in Robin Hood Drive.
She will encourage the students to gather sponsorship to take part in a fitness challenge that she will run at the school.
The sponsorship money will then be collected and used by the school to fund PE lessons and equipment.
The event is being organised by Sports 4 All, an organisation which aims to inspire all children to get involved in sport.
During the last two years it has helped schools raise almost £200,000.
