OLIVIA Breen, Liphook's very own Paralympic bronze medallist, has returned home after a triumphant fortnight.

And after taking part in Monday's Olympic Parade thorugh central London, the jubilant 16-year-old athlete came home on Tuesday to find her house covered in bunting, posters and welcome signs, in time for a celebration party with her family.

Olivia, who has cerebral palsy, won a bronze medal after one of the most dramatic finishes of the women's 4x100m sprint relay.
