Daley Thompson CBE
Double Olympic and World Decathlon Champion

He was the first person ever to hold the World, Olympic, Commonwealth and European titles at the same time, as well as the World Record. He was unbeaten in competition for 9 years. Daley was Olympic Champion in 1980 and 1984, World Champion in 1983, European Champion in 1982 and 1986 and Commonwealth Champion in 1978, 1982 and 1986 and he set four World Records.
"Daley's energy, fun and enthusiasm made it a great day."

He focused on highlighting the benefits that hosting the Olympics would bring to education and sport in schools and he played a key role lobbying the international IOC members right down to the final vote in Singapore.
