The 20-year old Olympic champion has signed a sponsorship agreement with Praesepe’s Cashino brand of adult gaming centres, which will take Jones through to the next Olympic Games in Brazil in 2016.

Nick Harding, CEO of Praesepe, said: “After the London Olympics we decided to get involved and help an athlete in the lead up to Rio 2016. After considering a number of potential partners we saw Jade and thought she’d be the perfect fit.

“She’s an inspiration not just for our customers, who will really take to her fantastic personality, but also to our staff.

“As well as fitting in personal appearances alongside her training schedule, Jade will be holding some motivational sessions with staff explaining exactly what it takes to get to the top and win gold,” added Harding.

“We are all looking forward to developing our relationship with Jade and helping her to further success in Rio."
