Last year’s Olympic Games gripped the nation – with our very own eventer Tina Cook not only grabbing a silver medal but also an Argus Achievement Award.
The Findon rider held her nerve in Greenwich to help Team GB bag one of the first medals of the 2012 Games.
Two months later she was on the stage at the Theatre Royal to be presented with our award for Achiever of the Year.
She said: “I’ve been competing all over Europe for many years so to be recognised by local residents and the local paper is fantastic.
“I’ve always lived here, it’s home. It was a great night and I feel very privileged to have been part of it.”
