An accomplished athlete, Amelia Blackledge achieved the title at both English and British Sabre Fencing Championships in 2019. That same year, she was selected to play hockey at county level. A keen cross-country runner, she has competed in a number of both team and individual races. Road cycling is another passion of hers, especially cycling in the Peak District Hills.
