Fifty children from schools across Manchester made the journey to the GB Taekwondo Centre earlier this week to take part in an inclusive project run by British Taekwondo, supported by GB Taekwondo, in partnership with Manchester United Foundation.

The schools in attendance were all Manchester United Foundation partner schools, who offered the children a number of enrichment sessions prior to the event with the support of British Taekwondo.

"For me, everything is about the young people,” John said, “They’ll be shattered tonight when they go home, but they’ll have enjoyed it, and they’ll have met two Olympians." Paralympic athlete and silver medallist Beth Munro made history by bringing home the first medal for Team GB in taekwondo from the Tokyo games in 2021.
