LSH Auto has been announced as the official sponsor of Olympic athlete Bianca Walkden.

The partnership agreement will see Bianca, a three-time world champion in taekwondo, become the ambassador for LSH Auto, which has Mercedes-Benz dealers in the Northwest and Midlands. Bianca’s first vehicle in the Mercedes-Benz lineup will be a Mercedes-Benz E-Class Cabriolet, so she hopes for warmer weather soon.

Bianca Walkden said: “I am so excited about my new Mercedes-Benz. I just need good weather now so I can tear down the roof! The LSH Auto team have been very helpful and look forward to working with them over the next year.

The announcement comes as Bianca Walkden prepares to represent the GB team at the Olympic Games in Tokyo this summer, after winning a bronze medal in Rio de Janeiro in 2016.

Martyn Webb, Managing Director of LSH Auto, said: “We are very happy to support Bianca and wish her the best of luck for the Olympics this summer. In addition to her bronze medal at the last Olympic Games, she is already multiple World Champion, European Champion, Grand Prix Champion and Grand Slam Champion. It’s great news that she will be flying the flag for Team GB and for LSH Auto as well.

“We are planning to organize special events for our clients and colleagues, where they will have the opportunity to meet Bianca. In the meantime, we’ll be cheering her on as she prepares for Tokyo and keeping everyone updated on her progress on our social media. “
