Today is my last day with British Para Swimming. I’ve had a wonderful 8 years. I count myself one of the luckiest people in the world. To have a shot at your dream job and succeed fills me with immense pride! Thanks to all that have helped me along the way!

Great effort! The @TeamEngland trio of @Jcatchpole123, @ReeceyDunn and @thomasbhamer finish just outside the podium in the Men's 200m Freestyle S14 final! They finished in fourth, fifth and sixth respectively 👏 #B2022 | #PartofthePride | #BringItHome | #InspiredToTry

Another example of the inequality of the ‘inclusive’ CWG! This is not ok!!

This is crap! They call this an inclusive #CommonwealthGames2022 but it quite clearly isn’t!!

Doesn’t make sense… because in 2014 CWG there was only 7 para athletes and in 2018 CWG there was 8 athletes so why can’t our own nation host heats?? When they can!!

Hey Adam #isitok that the CWG calls itself "inclusive' when only 5 out of 10 physical impairment para swimming classes are EVER included (least impaired) If you can't see us how can you be inspired to be us? @adamhillscomedy @TheLastLeg
