“It's been a very difficult year,” said Still, speaking at an event at Park Wrekin to celebrate the transformational impact of National Lottery funding. “We had the Commonwealth Games, we had the European Championships and then of course, we had the World Championships at the end of the year. The club has been supported by National Lottery funding and for Still, this has had a transformational impact. Your first one or two world championships, you're nervous, you don't know what to expect. National Lottery players raise more than £30million a week for good causes including vital funding into sport – from grassroots to elite.
