We were excited and honoured to welcome Darcy Bourne, Great Britain Hockey player, to King Edward's yesterday. Darcy talked succinctly about her sporting journey and career highlighting how it has intertwined with her passion for Equality, Diversity and Inclusion both in and out of her sporting life.
