Seven-time Paralympic gold medallist Sarah Storey believes that the 2012 Games has the potential to change the perception of disabled sport in the UK.

Storey, who was speaking after being named as an ambassador for Deloitte, also said that the event could help drive up sports participation among people with a disability. "This is an opportunity to put Paralympic sport at the forefront of people's minds, alongside the Olympic Games, where it should be," she said.
