We are back with more ‘Island Stories’… starting with the Island’s most decorated Olympian, double-gold medallist Shirley Robertson OBE. Shirley, who has lived here for more than two decades, chats about her life in Cowes, including raising her teenage twins on the Island. She was the first woman to win consecutive Olympic gold medals – in Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004.
