Story

Imagine being registered blind. Now imagine throwing yourself down a steep slalom race course at 45 mph, only knowing where to go by following your guide's(/wife's!) bright yellow jacket and listening to what she says via your Bluetooth headset...

You can't see the gates you race through. You don't know where the edge of the piste is, nor if there are any trees or hazards around. You don't know what the snow conditions are like and forget about seeing other skiers. You've got no chance at spotting them!

We're raising £5,000 to help us qualify for the Beijing Winter Paralympics in March 2022

Currently ranked number 15 in the world, James and Alice are firmly en route to realising their dream to qualify for the upcoming Winter Games.

Meet James and Alice, Great Britain's kick-ass Visually Impaired ski racers

What it looks like for Alice:

What it looks like for James:

This is not just about us, this is about inspiring other visually impaired people to push their boundaries and extend their dreams!

Thank you for your interest (and hopefully donation )
