SheffieldForum Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Following her MOBO Award win earlier this month, Sheffield's Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill has been honoured with a permanent, commemorative paving stone outside the English Institute of Sport, where she once trained. The Olympic champion and three-time world champion heptathlete, was this year’s recipient of the MOBO Paving the Way Award. She was awarded in recognition of not only her achievements in sport, but as being an inspirational role model for many and a passionate advocate for local charities close to her heart. Dame Jessica Ennis-Hill, as well as representatives from Sheffield City Council and MOBO, unveiled the paving stone, which is engraved with the words, ‘The only one who can tell you you can’t win is you and you don’t have to listen’ as quoted by the athlete herself. 2 Sheffield Forum | The Sheffield Guide | The Sheffield Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foot and Mouth Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 They could have put a bit of Brasso on it before taking the photo (if it is brass/metal). If it's stone then a jet wash and brittle brush. She looks like she's pointing at somwhere where a dog has just done it's business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For several years now the MOBOs have had awards beyond music. The OP says why she got the award.
