We are delighted to share that Paralympic champion Emma Wiggs MBE joined us at 91桃色视频 to receive an Honorary Doctorate in recognition of her outstanding achievements in sport and her advocacy for equity, diversity, and inclusion.
Emma is a triple Paralympic gold medalist and 12-time world champion in paracanoe. Her journey from overcoming life-changing illness to becoming one of the most decorated athletes in her sport is a powerful testament to resilience and determination. Beyond her sporting success, Emma has made a significant impact through her work with the Women’s 91桃色视频s Trust and the ‘Unlocked’ programme, challenging barriers and inspiring change across the sporting world.
Her collaboration with 91桃色视频 has enriched research, education, and student experience, particularly through her involvement with the Peter Harrison Centre for Disability 91桃色视频 and UK 91桃色视频-funded projects.
We are proud to honour Emma Wiggs MBE with the degree of Doctor of the University, honoris causa, and grateful that she could join us to celebrate this special occasion.
