Para-athlete Bjørk Nørremark receives JYSK's Bring Dedication grant of DKK 25,000. Her level speaks for itself. Several medals at international championships, and most recently a World Championship bronze medal and a Paralympic bronze medal in Paris 2024 in long jump.
The grant hopefully makes the journey towards the next Paralympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028 easier.

"It means a lot. Making everything come together easier, both financially and timewise. It can be difficult when you juggle three arenas like athletics, art, and studies. This gives me the opportunity to optimise and adjust the small things that can make a big difference," says Bjørk Nørremark.
The Bring Dedication grant is part of our commitment to Parasport Danmark and is awarded annually to athletes who demonstrate exceptional drive and dedication.
"Bjørk shows an exceptional level of dedication in everything she does. She is a role model. Not only in athletics, but also as a creative talent and a student. At the highest level, it is the small margins that make the difference, and it is exactly those margins this grant is intended to help her refine," says Søren Brunsborg, Commercial Sales Coordinator at JYSK and grandson of JYSK founder Lars Larsen, who presented the grant to Bjørk.
