Sammi Kinghorn
Samantha Kinghorn MBE, born on January 6, 1996, is a Scottish Paralympic and World Champion wheelchair racer. After a life-altering accident at 14 left her paralysed from the waist down, she embraced wheelchair racing, quickly ascending to elite status.
At the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games, Sammi secured her first Paralympic gold in the T53 100m, alongside four silver medals in the 400m, 800m, and 1500m events as well as the Universal Relay. Her contributions to disability sport were recognised with an MBE in 2022. Beyond athletics, Sammi shares her passion for the outdoors as a presenter on BBC’s Countryfile.
Max Whitlock
Max Whitlock’s career has been one of firsts. The Hertfordshire-born gymnast made history at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games when he won Great Britain’s first medal in the all-around event for 108 years, before becoming a double Olympic champion in the floor and pommel events – the first ever British gymnast to win Olympic gold.
Already Team GB’s most successful Olympic gymnast ahead of his arrival in Tokyo for the 2020 games, Max retained his Olympic title with victory in the men’s pommel horse, his third gold medal on sport's greatest stage, as well as claiming a fourth-place finish in the all-around team event.
Max was recognised with an OBE in the 2022 New Year Honours. He retired from gymnastics in 2024 and is forging a career as a sports ambassador, public speaker, business owner and charity patron.
Jonnie Peacock
Jonnie Peacock was one of the stars of the London Paralympic Games when the then 19-year-old made history to win the T44 100m.
He won World Championship gold in 2013 in Lyon. And he reclaimed the world title at London 2017.
Jonnie has won every major medal available with gold at London followed by a repeat four years later at Rio 2016.
At European level he has been equally prolific with gold medals coming at the IPC European Championships in Swansea in 2014 and Grosseto in 2016.
Jonnie ran the second leg of the 4x100m Universal Relay quartet who won silver at Tokyo 2020, a podium place that was then repeated at Paris 2024.
Jonnie returned to international action at the 2023 World Para Athletics Championships in Paris, where he earned a respectable 5th place in a closely contested T64 100m with a 10.98 seconds run.
Jonnie also competed on the BBC show Strictly Come Dancing in 2017.
Beth Shriever
Essex-born Beth Shriever’s road to the Olympics began at just nine years old when she was invited down to Braintree BMX club in Essex. Falling in love with the sport, she had her eyes set on gold from the start.
And in Tokyo, just four years after breaking through the senior ranks, Beth made her dream real when she won the Women's BMX racing gold medal.
Alongside her success as an Olympic champion, Beth hopes to be a role model to young female BMX riders all over the UK. She was awarded an MBE in the 2022 New Year Honours.
Emily Campbell
Nottingham’s Emily Campbell wrote her name in the history books as the winner of Team GB’s first-ever medal in women’s weightlifting, with silver in the +87kg category in Tokyo.
It was Emily's gold-winning performance in the 2021 World Championships that sent her to Japan. But her heroic first was the result of years of hard work and record-breaking results.
In 2017, Emily set a new national record in the British Championships. And just a year later, she scooped bronze at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
Since Tokyo, Campbell has continued to secure her place amongst the world's best, with 2021 World bronze, 2022 World silver, 2022 Commonwealth gold, and 2023 European gold.
Born in Coleraine, Northern Ireland, Hannah Scott has cemented her place in history as the first female athlete from Northern Ireland to win an Olympic gold medal in 52 years.
Hannah’s rowing journey began at Bann Rowing Club in Coleraine at just 13 years old. Hannah quickly rose through the ranks, securing five national titles and eight silver medals at the Irish Rowing Championships.
Hannah made history as the youngest member of the Great Britain rowing team at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics.
In 2023, Hannah played a leading role in Great Britain’s women’s quadruple sculls team, winning gold at the World Rowing Championships in Belgrade. Then again in 2024, where they won the European Championships in Szeged.
Her crowning moment came at the Paris 2024 Olympics, where she and her teammates delivered a stunning gold-medal performance.
For her contributions to rowing and her impact on women’s sport, Hannah was appointed MBE in the 2025 New Year Honours.
