Npower Service to Sport Award
Jim Buchannan being presented his award by Helen Weston
Northumberland Sport would like to congratulate Jim Buchannan from Berwick upon Tweed on receiving the Service to Sport Award at the recent North East Disability Sports Achievements Awards.
Jim’s devotion to sport spans nearly 30 years. He‘s helped to raise funds of more than £50,000. His absolute dedication to the task of developing the sport of Wheelchair Curling has captured the hearts of everyone who’s seen him, helped him - or been pestered by him! - for the funding for a wheelchair lift in the Border Ice Rink!
In Berwick upon Tweed and The Borders, Jim is Mr Curling!
The awards were organised by the English Federation for Disability Sport and sponsored by npower. The Service to Sport Award recognises the continued contribution to sport by Jim in the sport of Wheelchair Curling.
