Holyrood exhibition will celebrate Scottish athlete's Olympics win

A EXHIBITION celebrating the success of a legendary Scottish athlete will be unveiled at Holyrood this month.

The ‘Eric Liddell: Legacy of an Olympic legend’ display will mark the centenary of his Olympic gold medal victory in Paris in 1924 and will launch on July 25.

“We believe that any individual can make a positive impact on the world if they approach the challenges they face with passion, compassion, and integrity, which are our three values for The Eric Liddell 100. Liddell had withdrawn from the 100m heats at the Paris Olympics 1924 because they took place on a Sunday and instead competed in the 400m event where he won gold – the last British athlete to do so.
