Lucy discovered climbing whilst travelling in Australia and was instantly hooked.
Back in the UK, she headed to the indoor climbing centre, where she trained hard, til now, the present. Lucy is now a part of Team GB as a paraclimbing athlete, competing in world championships and hoping to compete in the next paralympics.
We met with Lucy at Big Depot climbing centre in Leeds. She tells about her training regime, her love for climbing both indoors and outdoors, and the barriers that make being a disabled climber all the more challenging.
