Sascha Kindred
HEREFORD paralympic swimmer Sascha Kindred has won an appeal after his funding was cut.
The 38-year-old, who won his seventh Paralympic gold medal at Rio in September, was one of a number of high-profile athletes left off the podium programme.
But his appeal to British Swimming was successful, meaning he will now receive funding from UK Sport.
