Aon will sponsor canoe champion Curtis McGrath over the next three and a half years as he strives to compete for gold at the 2020 Paralympic Games in Tokyo.

Mr McGrath, a former soldier who served in Afghanistan, recently defended his Paracanoe World Championships title and was a gold and silver medallist at the Invictus Games in Toronto last month.

“We seek to empower results through our business for our clients, colleagues and communities, and Curtis embodies that spirit,” Aon Chief Growth Officer Scott Willmot said.

Aon also supports the Australian women’s rugby sevens, the Aon University Women’s Sevens series and Rowing Australia.
