Shownotes
Emily Campbell is a weightlifter I've covered for a few years now.
She says "If you really really want something you can achieve it. It's not been easy." She's come back from the European Championships with gold medals as Britain had a massively successful tournament. They're now waiting for formal confirmation on the team for Tokyo.
Emily's had support from her local community with fund raising efforts from local traders and friends. And there's a real sense of pride at her achievements. It's not been easy because her sport's attracted little or no funding.
Emily won a medal at the Commonwealth Games in 2018 but it's the Olympics which have been her dream.
