Paul Salmon, Contracts Manager with Colchester Tile has been made a 2012 Olympic Torch bearer.
Paul was nominated by the Village School in Colne Engaine as a result of the work that he undertakes for the village and the local community. Over the past few years he had helped the local Brownies, raised fund for the local community and swum the English Channel as part of a relay team raising £5000 for three charities.
Salmon has worked in the tile industry for 10 years, nine of which were with Pentagon Tiles before moving to Colchester Tiles as Contracts Manager.
Paul said he was delighted to be made a torch bearer adding that the help he gives to the community is "my way of giving back".
He will be carrying the torch on 6 July part way between Ipswich and Chelmsford, Essex.
