Congratulations Megan: Child Of Wales Awards

Megan Thyer: 2024 Wales Child Award Winner

We are thrilled to congratulate 12-year-old Megan Thyer for winning the "Young Sporting Hero" award at the Wales Child Awards 2024, held in Swansea on 27th September. Megan, from Llanelli, is part of the Welsh & GB jujitsu squad and has competed internationally, securing two golds and two silvers in European competitions.

Dauson Environmental was proud to support Megan earlier in the year when at only aged 11 at the time, won Great Britain Jujitsu’s first ever European Gold Medal in Belgium at the Europa Cup.

The judging panel for "Young Sporting Hero" award, which included Welsh sporting greats Sir Gareth Edwards and Shane Williams, remarked:

"Despite her success, Megan remains humble and shares her knowledge with her teammates, inspiring them and boosting their confidence. Her role as a trailblazer makes her an excellent role model for young athletes in Wales and Great Britain, exemplifying dedication, humility, and self-belief."

Dauson Environmental continues to wish Megan success in her journey as she strives for excellence in jujitsu and is delighted to continue to support her continued journey as she now makes her way to the World Championships in Greece later this year.
