You’d better be-leaf he’s back! You’re not seeing things. Yes, it’s July. No, it’s not come early. But Kevin’s not just for Christmas. Especially when Paris 2024 is at stake. Here he is, the nation’s most iconic root vegetable, on a one-carrot mission to return the missing Olympic torch so the games can begin. Kevin’s very special summer cameo celebrates our wonderful partner @aldiuk’s support of Team GB and ParalympicsGB and we’ve loved bringing this seasonal debut to life. We’re sure you’ll join us in rooting for Team GB!

While the captivating performance of pole vaulter Mondo Duplantis at the Olympics showcased the excitement and popularity of field events, the broader trend in the sport is moving away from including them in high-profile competitions. New, lucrative track-only events are emerging, with significant prize money and media attention. This shift is driven by a focus on creating more compelling narratives and maximizing viewership for television broadcasts. As a result, field event athletes are increasingly marginalized, raising concerns about the future of the sport and the potential for a long-term split between track and field.

🏅 Celebrating the Olympic Spirit 🏅 The Olympic Games are more than just a global sports event—they are a symbol of unity, resilience and the pursuit of excellence. Every athlete who competes on this world stage represents not just their country but the dedication, discipline and determination it takes to reach the pinnacle of human potential. Whether it's breaking records or simply breaking barriers, the Olympics remind us of the incredible heights we can reach when we push beyond our limits and come together as a global community. From the unforgettable moments of triumph to the stories of perseverance, the Games inspire us all to strive for greatness in our own lives. As we cheer on these extraordinary athletes, let's also take a moment to reflect on the values of respect, friendship, and fair play that the Olympics stand for. These values are not just for the sports arena—they are principles we can carry into our workplaces, our communities and our daily lives. Here's to the power of sport to bring us together and to the incredible athletes who remind us that with hard work and determination, anything is possible. 🥇 #Olympics #Inspiration #Excellence #Teamwork #GlobalUnity

🏆Why I Love Watching the Olympics🏆 The Games are well underway, and there's something truly magical about the Olympic Games that captivates me every time they come around. It is more than just a series of competitions; it is a celebration of human greatness, solidarity, and the relentless pursuit of pushing our limits. #Olympics2024 #OlympicGames #HumanGreatness #Inspiratio #Grit #Resilience #PushingLimits #GlobalUnity #Sportsmanship #HistoricMoments #TeamUSA #SummerOlympics #OlympicSpirit 🏅Human Greatness🏅 Watching athletes from around the world perform at the peak of their abilities is nothing short of awe-inspiring. Each event showcases the incredible capabilities of the human body and spirit. 🏅Solidarity🏅 The Olympics are a unique event where the world comes together, transcending borders, cultures, and differences. Athletes compete not just for personal glory but to represent their nations with pride. This global gathering fosters a sense of unity and shared purpose, reminding us that despite our differences, we are all part of a larger human family. 🏅Pushing the Limits🏅 Every Olympic Games brings new records, new milestones, and stories of athletes who have overcome immense challenges to reach the pinnacle of their sports. These stories of perseverance and determination inspire me to push my own limits, to set new goals, and to strive for personal bests in every aspect of my life. 🏅Historic Moments of Resilience and Grit🏅 One of my favorite aspects of the Olympics is witnessing historic moments of resilience and grit.

Another valuable lesson the Corporate and Business world can learn from the Paralympics! Most businesses have Stars that go under the radar, and we should recognise them more! Thanks for sharing Matt Levy OAM :)

While the athletes are the stars of the show, a group of unsung heroes are finally being recognised for their work at the Paralympics. Sighted guides on the track, pilots in the velodrome, and ramp operators on the court are considered the unsung heroes of the Paralympics. These guides and operators are a crucial part of the Games. Many athletes would be unable to compete without them and until recently, their hard work has been unacknowledged. Just as athletes rely on these guides to perform, organisations depend on their support staff, often without giving them the recognition they deserve. Acknowledging and valuing the contributions of these behind-the-scenes workers can enhance team morale, drive performance, and lead to greater overall success.
Tappers, tethers, and clappers — these are the unsung champions of the Paralympic Games

When you can make someone feel prouder about who they are through your work, that's what purpose and impact is about. Great work Channel 4
CEO of Channel 4. Non Executive Director. Well behaved women seldom make history. 😀
Ahhhhh the Paralympics 2024 are complete 20 million people watched on Channel 4 We had our biggest audience share week in 12 years!! People watched on TV, on streaming, on TikTok, on Instagram, on YouTube. We put it everywhere! It was our most accessible games ever. 91% of our presenting and commenting team were disabled, 30% of our crews in total. Live subtitles were available for everything. Peak-time sports had audio description and live signing. The presenters were incredible, the coverage was fun and innovative and joyful, the Last Leg every night was spectacular. The medal haul for GB was unparalleled. The crews and teams worked non stop. I always think that young people are the most accepting and championing of difference and this proved it. Channel 4's coverage was a massive hit with those supposedly elusive young viewers. We recorded our biggest ever share of young viewers - 44% up on Tokyo 2020 and and even up on London 12 years ago. They fundamentally care about equality. Everything about the joy and the brilliance of working on this is summed up for me in this clip from the last night of The Last Leg in Paris with Alex Brooker. It's the pride and the joy and the fun. You can hear his voice cracks with emotion and he talks so passionately about how he and others now see themselves reflected differently to before. Thank you to so many partners and friends and supporters and to everyone across Channel 4. It has been a phenomenal and truly impactful team effort.
