A Sheffield man blinded by a rare allergic reaction to penicillin is hoping to represent Great Britain at goalball this summer.

GB Men's Caleb Nanevie was seven when he lost his sight after doctors in Ghana prescribed the drug for chickenpox.

It triggered the condition Stevens-Johnson syndrome, leaving him blind for three years before a cornea transplant restored partial vision.

If selected he will compete at the IBSA World Games in Birmingham in August.
