Elms Direct proudly sponsors Paralympic swimmer Harriet Lee

WEBWIRE – Thursday, August 23, 2012

The London Paralympic Games will begin at the end of August, and swimmer Harriet Lee will be taking the stage in the capital, in high hopes of a medal. Lee is sponsored by the Elms Direct Mini dealership in Cambridge, which recently presented her with a brand new convertible model to celebrate their association. Mini is an official partner of Team GB and ParalympicsGB.

Lee is already an established name in British swimming and a world record holder for the 50m breaststroke, and this year’s Paralympics will be her first. She uses her Mini convertible to travel to and from training sessions, and takes the car out to race days and other events.

A representative of Elms Direct made the following comments: “We’re extremely proud to sponsor Harriet and to provide one of our reliable Mini models for her to use. All of us at Elms Direct will be cheering Harriet on at the upcoming Paralympic swimming events.”

Elms Direct is the franchised Mini dealership for the Cambridge area, supplying new, nearly new, and approved used cars to local motorists. The group runs a network of dealerships across the United Kingdom, and has a long history of association with British athletes.
