Meribel
Meet the two newest members of the Armed Forces Para-Snowsport Team
Tim Varley and Ian McCarthy are two of the newest members of the Armed Forces Para-Snowsport Team and were delighted to be invited to the Inter Services Snow Sports championships in Meribel last week.
Both have different injuries and illnesses but the skier and snowboarder came together on the slopes and forged a friendship based around the joy and freedom that sport gives you.
Although neither were competing during the week, they did take part in the sponsors' races and even got to test their skills against each other.
