Golden boy Dan visits ex school

Bentley was at Ingfield Manor School students to talk about his achievement when he was part of the team that won a gold in boccia at this year's Games in Beijing.

The 22-year-old spent a few hours with the pupils at Ingfield, which is run by Scope, and described what it was like to be at the Paralympics and about boccia, which is similar to bowls.

He gave a demonstration of boccia, using his gold medal-winning bowls, and presented pupils with a signed Paralympics Team T-shirt. Everyone also had a chance to see and hold the gold medal.
