このコンテンツについて
The Paralympics, as we commonly know them, have their roots in the Stoke Mandeville Games, first held in 1948, when only wheelchair athletes competed.
In 1960, they were renamed as the Paralympic Games, and in 1976, para-athletes besides wheelchair users were allowed to compete for the first time.
My guest today was one of those. And she didn’t just compete – she cleaned up.
Monica Vaughan represented Great Britain in swimming at two Paralympics.
Five Gold medals in Toronto in ’76 were followed by four more plus a Silver in Arnhem in Germany in 1980.
By the way, thank you to Stylist Magazine for naming us as one of the best podcasts about women in sport.
