Olympic star Nicola Adams named Hyundai ambassador
One of the brightest stars at the 2012 Olympic Games in London has been named as the new brand ambassador for Hyundai.
Nicola Adams, team GB's gold medal winning boxer and the first woman ever to take the accolade, has been signed up by Hyundai to assist with the manufacturer's CSR initiatives - including its Skills For the Future educational initiative, in conjunction with Street League UK.
The inspirational sports star has recently taken delivery of a Hyundai Veloster Turbo and has welcomed the new challenge of leading initiatives to help young people to develop skills to get them in the job market.
President and chief executive of Hyundai Motor UK Tony Whitehorn said the partnership is a perfect fit to help develop and progress the training schemes.
"Our support of Street League and our own Skills For The Future programme provides real opportunities for disadvantaged young people. Nicola’s achievements and attitude are inspiring for future generations,” he said.
