Sporting Biography

Athletics Results

My name is Stephen James Miller.
I was born with cerbal palsey from birth, which is a form of brain damage that affects the signals from my brain to my muscles and makes balance and coordination more difficult than usual.

I attended Percy Headly School up until the age of 9 when I went into mainstream education at Southlands Middle School in Cramlington. I went on to complete GCSE's and A-levels at Blyth Ridley High School before gaining a 2-1 honours degree in Business Information Systems from Northumbria University.

Being very sporty from an early age, I am now a professional athlete, competing in field athletics including the club(javelin/hammer), discus and shot put. I have represented Great Britain for over 10 years, competing in 4 Paralympic Games, 3 World Championships and 2 European Championships.

I am also a website developer, working part-time and freelance.
