Jasmin “Jaz” Taylor, reigning FIS World Cup Telemark Overall, Classic and Sprint Champion (2023‑24 season), has been appointed as ambassador for SkiVenture, the UK’s leading snowsports programme for young people with Special Educational Needs (SEN).

​

Known for her grit, consistency, and outstanding achievements on the slopes—including multiple Crystal Globes and an exceptional number of World Cup podiums in 2024—Jaz brings much more than elite performance to this role.

​

Her commitment to young people, particularly those facing additional challenges, and her status as a positive role model make this partnership a natural fit. Jaz champions perseverance, enthusiasm, and a belief that every young person—regardless of background or ability—deserves access to life‑changing opportunities.

 

She aligns deeply with SkiVenture’s mission, which is to deliver snowsports experiences that build life skills, confidence, wellbeing, strength, coordination, and inclusion for SEN pupils. 

 

As ambassador, Jaz will lend her voice and experience to raising awareness of the SkiVenture programme, inspire young people by sharing her own journey, and help advocate for wider support so more SEN schools can benefit from snowsports.

 

Her involvement underscores that excellence isn’t limited by circumstance, and that sport can be a powerful tool for empowerment and growth.
