She volunteered at Raglan Youth Group before being offered a full-time role and has recently completed treatment for breast cancer. She said: "I still find it very hard to believe that I was chosen from the many people nominated. "I had lots of people cheering me on, my parents and sister plus a friend from Northampton is coming just to watch me run. There was also friends from church and from the village of Raglan. "All in all it is a very exciting and momentous day." Meanwhile, forecasters from the MetMet Office said the weather will remain mainly dry with lots of sunshine as the flame makes its way through Wales this weekend. A spokesman said: "Temperatures could reach as high as 24C (75.2F) as the Torch Relay continues its journey. "If you are planning to head out to follow the Olympic Torch then you can check one of our local forecasts available for locations along its route. "The sun's UV levels are likely to be quite high and the public are encouraged to stay upup toto date with the MetMet Office's UV forecasts across the whole of the UK." The first torchbearer on Welsh soil was Gareth John MBE, chairman of Disability Sport Wales."
