About Ellie Simmonds OBE

Five-time Paralympic gold medal swimmer
BAFTA-winning documentary maker
Youngest ever recipient of an MBE from Queen Elizabeth
Ellie Simmonds, five-time Paralympic gold medalist and acclaimed documentary maker, has transformed her exceptional athletic career into a powerful platform for advocacy, inspiring audiences with her journey of resilience and determination.

Ellie made history aged just 14 as the youngest recipient of an MBE, later receiving an OBE for her services to Paralympic sport. Her impressive career includes eight Paralympic medals across multiple Games, beginning with her debut at Beijing 2008.

Ellie is passionate about using her platform to drive greater awareness and understanding of disability, particularly in sport. She serves as an ambassador for Scouts, WaterAid, and The Prince’s Trust. She is also a trustee for the United by Birmingham 2022 charity.

Away from the pool, Ellie has built a successful career as a broadcaster, presenting for BBC Sport and appearing on well-known television programmes like Strictly Come Dancing. She has produced several acclaimed documentaries, including Finding My Secret Family, which won Best Single Documentary at the 2024 British Academy Television Awards.

Ellie shares candid reflections on resilience, representation, and life after elite sport in her fireside chats. Audiences gain an inside perspective on her journey, from the highs of international competition to her advocacy for disability inclusion and authentic representation in society.
