We are currently supporting four young athletes in their bids to represent Great Britain in the 2012 Games. They are tennis player Laura Robson (14), middle and long-distance runner Emily Pidgeon (19) and sprinter Wade Bennett-Jackson (21). The fourth is tri-athlete Jill Parker, a BLP real estate finance lawyer, who has been with the firm since 2001.
The athletes will be supported by BLP in their endeavours to compete in 2012. The initiative demonstrates the firm’s desire to nurture talent and support local projects.
Laura, Emily and Wade are represented by sports management agency Octagon www.octagon-uk.com
