She has gone on to win 5 Paralympic’s, 12 world and 2 European titles, since making her international debut in 2011. She has also broken numerous world records and is still in her late 20’s. Due to her amazing achievements, she received an MBE in 2013 at the age of 22. In addition to her career within racing, Hannah is a patron, ambassador and supporter of 9 charities by raising money and awareness of their unique causes through her racing career and in her spare time.”
