Local MP David Mundell has congratulated Lockerbie woman Anna Sloan on being selected to represent Great Britain at next year’s Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
Anna, who was born and lives in Lockerbie, is a member of the women’s Curling team. She was part of the team which won gold at the World Championships earlier this year, and they have high hopes of further success in Sochi.
“I am delighted to learn that Anna has been selected for the GB Team next year and wish her, and her team-mates, all success. To have someone of her outstanding talent in this sport not only helps Team GB on the medal trail but locally, where curling is a strong sport, Anna’s success means local youngsters have someone to look up to and emulate, and will encourage the next generation of top curlers,” said the MP.
