With the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games just a year away, Valentin Bertrand, an athlete supported by the Fund since its inception, has proved that he belongs there. After more than 10 years in athletics, he finished 3rd in the long jump (T37 category) at the world championships in Paris (France) on July 15, securing his first podium finish at a world event.
