They were joined by Paralympic gold medallists Hannah Cockcroft, Jonnie Peacock and new ParalympicsGB chief executive Dave Clarke. Clarke said: «Every Body Moves is an exciting initiative aiming to connect with even more disabled people across the UK and promote inclusive sport.

I would like to thank Toyota for their ongoing commitment to building on the successes we have already achieved to empower more disabled people to become active in a way that is right for them. »Disabled people tell us that representation is a crucial part of breaking down barriers to participation in physical activity and this is why it is so important we celebrate the benefit of movement for Every Body." Cambridge-born Peacock added: «Moving in a way that works for you is a great way to look at it.
