In 2009 Jade Etherington  joined the British Disabled Ski Team’s Development Squad and skiing became something more than just a fun activity. In 2011 she began racing on the international circuit and in 2013 she enjoyed her breakthrough senior success taking bronze in the super-G event at the Alpine Skiing World Championships at La Molina in Spain.
In March 2014 Jade took the silver medal in the downhill event, becoming the first British woman ever to win a Winter Paralympics medal on snow. Over the next six days she added silver in the slalom, silver in the combined event and bronze in the super-G, becoming the most decorated British Winter Paralympian in history.
Jade Etherington was fantastic at the NCS Graduation on Friday 4th September.  The young people thoroughly enjoyed hearing about her experiences during the Paralympics and during her teacher training. Jade’s speech was very heart warming and inspirational for all of the young people attending. Jade was great at handing out certificates, taking her time to personally congratulate each and everyone of the young people receiving their certificates. It was an absolute pleasure meeting Jade and we would love to work with her again.
Jade was bubbly, entertaining and a great guest speaker. Â She was an inspiration to all and we were delighted she could join us on our special day. We would not hesitate to recommend Jade to anybody looking for a guest speaker at their event.
