Nicolina Pernheim (born 22 August 1991) is a blind
Summer Paralympics three times.[1][2] She is highly regarded as one of Sweden's best female judoka.[3][4]
In 2020 she was supported financially by a campaign which raised money from Swedes who bought a particular pillow. The money was shared between Pernheim, cyclist Louise Jannering and long jumper Viktoria Karlsson in order that they could fund guides prior to the postponed 2020 Summer Paralympics in Tokyo.[5]
