Annie grew up on the Isle of Wight which is where she developed a passion for water sports.

She spent her free time surfing with her family and her summers lifeguarding the Isle of Wight’s beaches.

Annie started rowing while studying at the University of Birmingham.

Rowing appealed to Annie as it was the first time she had participated in a sport where, as someone with cerebral palsy, she felt she could keep up with her able bodied teammates and was treated as an equal rather than someone with a disability.

While rowing with the university team, Annie’s coach suggested she apply for British Rowing’s Para development programme.

Annie’s career highlights include medaling at the 2023 European Championships and achieving Paralympic qualification at the 2023 World Rowing Championships in the PR3 mixed double sculls.
