Invictus Games 2017

21 Sep 2017

All the staff at Peter Heron are excited and fully behind Ian ‘Roni’ Ronald who is the partner of Liz Witney, our Fulwell Branch manager as they both head over to Canada, for the 2017 Invictus games in Toronto.

Ian is competing in the indoor rowing and we are sure he’ll smash it and bring home gold!  The Invictus Games start on 23rd September until 30th September.  Liz is supporting him alongside his mother Tina Ronald and they will keep us updated on the games and his progress.

Would you kindly join us in wishing Ian all the very best for this heroic cause!

Invictus Games competitors are the men and women who have come face-to-face with the reality of making a sacrifice for their country. They are the mothers, fathers, husbands and wives who have put their lives on the line and have suffered life-changing injuries. These people are the embodiment of everything the Invictus Games stands for. They have been tested and challenged, but they have not been overcome. They have proven they cannot be defeated. They have the willpower to persevere and conquer new heights. The Games shine a spotlight on the sacrifices these men and women made serving their country, and their indefatigable drive to overcome.

The Invictus Games is about much more than just sport – it captures hearts, challenges minds and changes lives.
