It has been through MediaPAs on-line driven marketing articles about the connection that Argent have been able to gain PR from the relationship as well as “the fantastic feeling you receive from giving back” that Clare explains she attains from supporting Camille.

Camille is delighted with the renewal of Argent’s sponsorship and comments on how it is “really great to have their support and encouragement…not only financially but emotionally as well”. The support received from Argent will help Camille towards achieving her goals of reaching the next World University games as well as World champs and from there Rio Olympics in 2016. Camille has also had the chance to stay at Argent’s spacious apartments and describes them as “a great place to get away and focus”.
