Laura Stephens has claimed European medals at a junior level and competed in World and Commonwealth Games finals.
The London-born swimmer produced a lifetime best time to qualify for her debut senior international outing, representing Team England in 2018 at the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast.
A further breakthrough at the 2019 British Swimming Championships in the 200m Butterfly - which saw her secure a silver medal, as well as bronze in the 100m Butterfly - earned Stephens her inclusion for the Great Britain World Championships squad going to Gwangju, where she placed eighth in the 200m Butterfly final on her Worlds debut.
