Keely Hodgkinson is poised to play a pivotal role in helping UK Athletics emerge from another seven-figure loss and thrive ahead of a potential golden era for the sport.
Following a successful Olympics in Paris for Team GB, which included 10 medals in athletics, governing body UK Athletics has announced its latest financial figures with a £1.2m loss for the year ending 31 March. That figure is ahead of schedule following the previous year’s loss of £3.7m, with chair Ian Beattie adamant the sport is on track to lose just £250,000 next year and eventually break even by 2026.
