Martin Randall jacket, Seoul 1988 Paralympics

3D Model

Martin Randall was married to Hazel who competed in lawn bowls at Seoul 1988. During the games, the British team noticed Team USA competitors going out to the market and getting kit made bespoke, they followed suit. This is why it has Martin’s name embroidered onto the front of the jacket. The Korean symbols or Tae-Guks are on the back like the team jacket and in the colours of red, blue, green, yellow, black and red like the Olympic rings.

Created through the Digital Explorations Project, a dynamic project, funded by the Rothschild Foundation, National Lottery Heritage Fund and National Paralympic Heritage Trust (NPHT) with support from Heart of Bucks. Groups of participants from local disability organisations have been trained in the use of a 3D scanner and photogrammetry. They have shared the skills that they have learnt with students from a SEND school to create a 3D virtual exhibition of items from the NPHT collection.
