Prior to winning Gold at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Kate enjoyed success from the outset of her professional career. Kate won her first Senior medal in 2014 and continued to perform at the top level which led to her selection to compete at the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, where she was the highest finishing British athlete coming in 5 th position.

Her success continued into the next Olympic cycle and saw her win multiple World Cup and major championship medals and never drop below a world ranking of no 6.

The delayed 2021 season was her most successful to date where Kate broke the world record for fencing in modern pentathlon, claimed the world number 1 ranking, winning 2 golds and a silver medal before winning her most acclaimed medal of all – The Gold medal at the Olympic Games where she set the Olympic record of highest overall points scored in the Modern Pentathlon.

Kate was made an MBE in the 2022 New Year Honours.

“Everyone is buzzing and clearly thoroughly enjoyed themselves. You achieved exactly what we needed, bringing the team together, getting them talking and seeing each other in a different light away from the office. We are extremely grateful.”

Major Arabella Mayo - British Army

“What a fantastic afternoon the team had with Kate. The laser pistol shooting was such an inclusive activity, very competitive and huge fun. There are so many transferable lessons and skills from her experiences as an elite Olympic athlete to our corporate world. It was an absolute privilege to spend time with someone who has achieved what Kate has. As a corporate event, I could not recommend this highly enough.”

Richard Clark, Partner, Burges Salmon LLP

“Our day with Kate was just fantastic. She explained everything so clearly and got our whole team working together. The shooting is so much fun and really brings out the inter office rivalry, the games that Kate put together for us were outstanding and gave us a great insight into what its like performing under pressure. Our staff LOVED holding a real Olympic gold medal!”

Harriet Bennet - Nest in Bath

“Kate was brilliant. It was quite an honour to meet an Olympic Gold medalist and to have the opportunity to learn how to handle the laser pistols, one of the five disciplines at which she excels. You would expect her to bring the gold medal, I couldn’t quite believe how relaxed she was about us all trying it on and passing it back and forth. She’s not only an amazing athlete, but she is also incredibly patient. Thank you Kate”

William MacLeod - Gravis Capital

“Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever put an Olympic Gold medal around my neck. A memorable end to a brilliant event. Kate was just so lovely and uplifting.”
