Compaid ambassador, Zak Skinner, wins Bronze Medal at the 2023 World Para-Athletic Championships

We are so proud to announce that Zak Skinner, Compaid’s ambassador, won a Bronze Medal in the T-13 Long Jump Men’s Final in the 2023 World Para-Athletic Championships, as well as achieving a lifetime best jump of new personal best as he jumped 6.97 metres!  

Compaid could not be prouder of Zak and his accomplishments in this world class event.

As his manager Anna commented “It's been a challenging preparation for the current European Champion, as he's fought hamstring injury over the past year. But world class achievement doesn't come without hard work and Zak couldn't have trained harder in preparation for this competition; on the track, in the weights room, with the physio not to mention his mental preparation.”  

Zak has proven once again that no matter what your level of ability/disability that with hard work, commitment & determination targets and success are possible. 

We look forward to supporting Zak and his athletics success unfolds as we look forward to the Paralympics in Paris 2024.
