Thank you British Blind sport for helping me realise that there is so much more to me than being an athlete. My time in the world class program has honed so many skills I didn’t realise I had

@JamesMelville @HDewarSport So true happy birthday @HDewarSport

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

@HDewarSport Thank you.

[heatherdewar @HDewarSport]

Lots @loraturnham is a force of nature and a stalwart of GB’s Paralympic programme. She has been outspoken and forthright in her views, in order to instigate change. By doing this article, she has already made an impact within UK Sport, and I hope she continues to use her voice for the good of others who are often too afraid to speak out. THIS, this is strength. 👏 READ: 👇

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

After receiving a rather upsetting email from UK sports a month ago, I decided to finally speak up. Athletes deserve a voice and people have the right to know the truth.

Less than one week to go until I ride The tour de 4 to help raise money to fight cancer. There’s still plenty of time to donate if you can. Let’s do this!

@neilstirton & I will ve riding an all Aberdeen tandem.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

Oh no! It’s started already.
Honestly though, that giggle is golden

[Neil Fachie OBE @neilfachie]

A lovely moment today as my former tandem pilot Pete took my son on his first ever bike ride.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

Just another classic day for Fraser at Nursery today

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

The majority of my life has been spent expecting more from myself
I need to be stronger, faster, more powerful, more confident, win more medals.
I lost sight of I am enough as I am.
No one is more suited to the role of Lora than me.
Here’s to a fresh start of being enough.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

@HDewarSport Thank you. That means a lot! Especially coming from someone like yourself. And don’t worry, I plan too.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

My athlete journey has come to an end. Onwards and upwards to new and exciting adventures.

Considering I woke up in a different country to my pilot the fact that we made it to the start line of the road race today at the world champs is an achievement in itself. Finishing 6th wasn’t what we hoped for but we made the best of it and couldn’t have done any more.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

I’m nothing if not consistent! Yet another bronze to add the collection.

Incredible event to be part of #Zurich2024 @UCI_paracycling

[British Cycling @BritishCycling]

It's two British pairings on the women's B ITT podium as @loraturnham and Corrine Hall blast their way to the bronze! 🥉 🙌

Just wanted to share a lovely comment we received when @neilfachie shared this photo.
We may have won bronze and silver, but Fraser is our Gold.
The truth of it made me cry.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

8 Years ago today I fulfilled the dream of becoming a Paralympic champion. Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful in defending that title in Paris this year.Hhowever, the memories will live with me for a lifetime. Truly won the best feelings ever.

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

Dear Prime Minister, It’s time for #EqualPlay

#ParalympicsGB

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

So long @Paralympics fair well #Paris2024

You have been incredible. Thank you for the memories.

Unfortunately all good things must end. It’s time to go home.

Au revoir

[Lora Fachie OBE @loraturnham]

In the past I was lead to believe it was gold or nothing, That bronze was not good enough. I’m working hard to rectify this. Winning a medal of any colour is not easy at a Paralympics. I’ve fought hard for each and every medal and I’m proud of my 3 bronzes @ParalympicsGB

A hat-trick of bronze medals for Lora Fachie & Corrine Hall 🙌
