Thomas White

BA Global Sports Management (Hons)

Thomas has overcome extraordinary challenges throughout his life after being diagnosed with Cerebral Palsy as a child.

Born prematurely alongside his twin brother, Thomas was told by doctors he may never walk or speak. With the support of his parents and years of determination, he has continued to push beyond expectations.

At the age of 13, Thomas underwent major surgery, followed by months of rehabilitation to learn to walk again. Despite setbacks including Pneumonia during recovery, he remained focused on his future and eventually achieved his goal of attending university.

Now on track for a first-class degree, he hopes his journey will inspire others facing barriers, and dreams of one day working within organisations such as the FA or Formula 1.
