Lambourne is from Oxford and began playing for Oxford United's centre of excellence.[1] In the 2014 FA WSL season Oxford joined the inaugural FA WSL 2 and Lambourne made 18 appearances in her first season in senior football, following an injury to the club's regular goalkeeper Hannah Cox.[2]

In 2015 Lambourne established herself as Oxford's recognised first-choice goalkeeper, and signed a new contract with the club.[3] She was also called into the England women's national under-19 football team.[4]

Lambourne signed for Leicester City in August 2018.[5] She made her FA WSL debut in November 2021, in a 1–0 defeat by Everton at Pirelli Stadium.[6]
