KATRINA COSBY
This year Katrina Cosby was the UK's fastest 400m hurdler in the Under 20 age group (see www.thepowerof10.info). Despite this, she will not receive any funding from official agencies next year. At a time of austerity this is understood and the family is doing all it can to support Katrina. What the family cannot do is help her to train and compete with the best, as the best is to be found abroad. Katrina is prepared to endorse products and make personal appearances. She has modelled and this year appeared on the Nike website (screenshot can be supplied if required), modelling footwear. "Katrina currently trains six days a week and is able to earn some 'pocket' money through coaching youngsters at her own club, Blackheath and Bromley Harriers. However, this and the support of her family will not meet the costs of warm weather training and international competition in 2011/12 which I estimate will cost £10,000. Will YOU become a sponsor and help Katrina make it for Britain? Thank you for giving this your consideration". Contact: Stephen Cosby. Address: 22 Leamington Close, Bromley, Kent BR1 5BP.

MAJOR PHIL PACKER
Major Phil Packer sustained a spinal cord injury in Iraq in February 2008 and since then continues to inspire millions. His focus is supporting Young People who face Adversity. He has made this his business. As he began to cope with the situation he found himself in, to regain self-confidence, self-esteem, self-belief and feel to empowered to make choices in life, Phil decided to embark upon numerous physical challenges to raise funds for charity, raise positive awareness and enthuse others. His decisions pulled him through the dark times and he started to overcome the adversity faced with physical limitations and this improved his mental well-being. His three main challenges in 2009 were completed within six months. He rowed the English Channel with Al Humphreys on 14th February, just after a year of being injured and he walked the London Marathon over fourteen days on crutches, with support from his great friend, Martyn Bird. Phil captivated the nation throughout his two-week ordeal. He then flew out to the USA and hauled himself up El Capitan with a support team of some of the country’s best climbers, including Andy Kirkpatrick; he completed over 4,250 pull-ups and slept on the side of the mountain for three days before reaching the summit. Phil raised in excess of £1.3 million for charity in 2009. His efforts inspired millions and gained national recognition, including the Athlete of the Year Badge from the Scout Association, Fundraiser of the Year at the Pride of Britain Awards and the Helen Rollason Award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year. The Armed Forces also recognised his efforts prior to his retirement in March 2010 and he was awarded the MBE in The Queen’s Birthday Honours List. In 2010, Phil stepped up to the mark again and in addition to supporting the wounded, he turned his attention and main focus to supporting Young People who face Adversity. To continue his physical challenges and to inspire young people, he climbed the 3 Peaks in 72 hours for Sport Relief with BBC presenter, Kate Silverton. He was supported again by Al Humphreys, Andy Kirkpatrick and Martyn Bird and was joined on Mount Snowdon by Sir Steve Redgrave and Sir Clive Woodward. This became the feature for the BBC Inside Sport documentary A Major Mountain to Climb that followed his journey. He then completed his biggest challenge: the opportunity to bring charities together and raise awareness of numerous disabilities, deprivation and medical conditions. On the 25th/26th April 2010, Phil smashed his fourteen day London Marathon time and completed the Virgin London Marathon in 26 hours for 26 charities, walking each mile with a Young Person from each of the charities. The greater awareness of the various charities' work and the inspiration Phil gave to the Young People and the public was immense and immeasurable. Contact: Major Phil Packer.

RICHARD WALSH
Richard Walsh has been a rowing coach for thirty years. He has coached Scottish, British, Commonwealth Games and World Champion rowers. He was Rowing Team manager for the Scottish Commonwealth Games team. He is now coaching an individual rower who needs sponsorship to cover the costs of his boat, oars and transport. "This individual has the potential to go to World and Olympic level based on my assessments so far. The athlete is currently using borrowed equipment which is of the wrong size and age. If his equipment could be funded then it would be used by this individual and any other subsequent athletes I coach. Advertising could be offered by using the boat cover to carry logos, company names, etc. The new boat and oars will cost around £7,000". Contact: Richard Walsh. Address: PE Department, Lourdes Secondary School, Kirriemuir Avenue, Glasgow G52 3DF. Tel.: 0141 582 0180. Fax: 0141 582 0181. E-mail: rickywalsh@yahoo.co.uk.
