Olympic gold medal hopeful and British road racing champion, cyclist Lizzie Armitstead, of Otley, has donated a signed British team training shirt and gloves worn by her to help raise funds at Macmillan Cancer Support’s fashion show.

When Lizzie heard about the fashion show, she was delighted to donate the items to the fundraising event.

The Olympics and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee are the themes for the show, to be held at Craiglands Hotel in Ilkley on April 19.

Other Olympic medal hopefuls, such as Rebecca Adlington, Jessica Ennis, Beth Tweddle, Sarah Stevenson, Goldie Sayers and the Brownlee brothers, have all donated signed photographs.
