On 1st February 2004 Josie travelled with the Para squad from Richmond Dales to Aberdeen Sports village for the Para Swimming International Winter Meet. The event; The Citi Para Swimming World Series (the 1st leg in the 2024 calendar) ran parallel with the British Para Swimming International Meet. The 4-day event welcomed competitors from all over the world including some of Britain’s top athletes and their international rivals.

Josie had an amazing weekend and thoroughly enjoyed her experience and said the 400m Freestyle was her favourite race of the 4 day event. Congratulations on your Long Course PBs……tremendous performance Josie !
