A fundraising enthusiast was cheered along by the crowds as she carried the Olympic torch through Crawley on July 17.

Lisa Austin, from Tadworth, was chosen as a torchbearer through drinks company Coca Cola’s future flames campaign, which recognises and rewards the positive contributions young people make in their  communities.

The 22-year-old is constantly looking for new ways to raise money and trains hard for every challenge she undertakes. 

She has completed a number of 10k runs, competed in the London to Brighton bike ride and organised a charity cricket day.
