In 2023, the hard work started to pay off when she won bronze at the Montreal World Cup in the BC4 Pairs with Stephen McGuire. This was followed up with a silver medal in the Pairs event at the 2023 European Para Championships in Rotterdam and then a gold at the Heraklion Challenger.

The 40-year-old first tried her hand at curling but the cold conditions didn’t suit her. Switching to boccia, she says the sport has had a positive impact on her condition, muscular dystrophy.
