TOKYO 1964:
The first Fair Play prize awarded to Lars Gunnar Kall and Stig Lennart Kall, who gave up their chances of winning the regatta to come to the aid of two other competitors whose boat had sunk.
Welcome to Lloyds TSB Local Heroes – our initiative to support more of Britain’s genuine young sporting hopefuls when they need it most.
Working in partnership with SportsAid, Lloyds TSB Local Heroes will provide funding to 250 emerging young sportspeople identified each year from local communities across Britain on their journey to London 2012 and beyond. Many hundreds of athletes will benefit from Lloyds TSB’s funding to help with the costs of their travel, equipment and training.
But the encouragement, recognition and moral support we’ll be giving them is every bit as important and our customers and staff will have the privilege of keeping the dream alive for Lloyds TSB’s Local Heroes across the UK.
