She finished fourth at the 2014 Commonwealth Games,[1] sixth at the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games and twelfth at the 2016 European Championships. She has won a total of nine British titles. Five of these were during the indoor seasons of 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017 and 2018, and four during the outdoor seasons of 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017.[2]
