Danielle aims for Paralympic glory

An archer who took up the sport just five years ago is representing team GB in Beijing for the Paralympic games.

Danielle Brown is among the 11-strong archery squad and flew out yesterday, ahead of the games which begin on Saturday, September 6.

The 20 year-old, from Lothersdale, is a member of the Aire Valley Archers, who shoot at South Craven School, Cross Hills, near Skipton, and St Ives, Bingley. She suffers from reflex sympathetic dystrophy, which affects her ability to stand.
