Lesley Berry, Laura's mum, has contacted us with some good news.

Laura received a letter on Friday that reads:

Dear Laura,
It gives me great pleasure to confirm the Real Snow Slope@Xscape, Milton Keynes will gladly sponsor you with complimentary slope time for training purposes as requested by the British Olympic Association.

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you all the best of luck and success in your future snowboarding endeavours.

Yours sincerely
Dean Walsh
General Manager

We've made it no secret that Laura is one of our favourite UK riders. Laura recently received a silver Olympic passport, which basically means she's being actively supported by Team UK as a future Olympic hopeful.

Lesley says that through Xscape's generosity it will enable Laura to train more locally and more regularly. With Xscape's support and additional training with the GB development squad in France she should have a great chance to represent the UK at future Olympics and we wish her continued success.

Laura (and Lesley's purse) would publicly like to thank Dean and Xscape Milton Keynes.
