Grace Harvey - 2018 Headshot

Grace Harvey won a superb SB5 100m Breaststroke silver at the Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games - and she will complete the hat-trick of appearances at Paralympic, World and European Championship events when she competes in Madeira at the Para Swimming World Championships 2022.

A sole swim in the MC 100m Breaststroke at the 2022 Para Swimming World Series inc. British Para-Swimming Meet saw Grace pick up a bronze medal in what was a thrilling race at the Aberdeen Sports Village.

The Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games saw Harvey with a busy programme that included five individual events, four finals, and that breaststroke silver in what was her maiden outing at the Games.

Harvey, who trains at the British Para-Swimming National Performance Centre in Manchester, made her full senior international debut at the 2018 World Para Swimming European Championships in Dublin.

She claimed a bronze medal in the S6 100m Backstroke and demonstrated her ever-growing talent, as well as a number of finals swims throughout the meet.
