- Fencer Laurence Halsted is selling his kit to help young athletes
- BOA says it is first ever sale of GB opening ceremony attire
Ten years on, it remains one of the most universally loved moments in British sporting history. And now, for the first time, a Team GB athlete has put their iconic Stella McCartney kit from the London 2012 Olympics’ spectacular opening ceremony up for auction.
The fencer Laurence Halsted, who reached the quarter-finals in the team foil competition in 2012, said he had decided to sell his Team GB jacket, T-shirt, shorts and shoes from the ceremony to raise money for a charity that helps young athletes.
