Local Special Olympics athlete Katy Johns and representative Rosemary Johns were presented with a special 'pizza cheque' by Domino's at the Exeter City versus Histon football match at St James's Park last Saturday.

Store boss Jay Milling said: "Domino's is committed to delivering more than just great-tasting pizza.

Special Olympics Great Britain offers people with a learning disability opportunities. It provides year-round sports training and competition to help the athletes gain confidence, grow in stature, develop self-esteem and be given the chance to participate to their fullest potential. Its sports programmes raise awareness of learning disability and seek to promote the abilities of a person rather than focus on disability.
