Siobhán Fitzpatrick's biography

At a glance

  • Paralympian and GB Wheelchair Basketball Athlete
  • Silver World and European Medalist and U25 World and Double European Champion
  • Public Speaker on Disability and Resilience
Siobhán Fitzpatrick is a British Paralympic athlete and celebrated member of the Great Britain women’s national wheelchair basketball team, known for her role in reshaping perceptions of disability in sport and beyond. Initially discovering wheelchair basketball at a “playground to podium” event in 2010, Siobhán quickly rose through the ranks, showcasing her talent in national and international arenas, from the School Games to the Junior Championships. She has since become a regular in the GB lineup, contributing to historic achievements, including a silver medal at the 2018 World Championships and a ground-breaking championship title with Loughborough Lightning in the British Wheelchair Basketball Women’s Premier League. Beyond the court, Siobhán’s impact spans far beyond sports. Having been an Ambassador for the 2022 Commonwealth Games, she is a sought-after speaker who addresses audiences on topics ranging from resilience and mental health to inclusivity and teamwork. Her journey, including the setback of not being selected for the 2016 Paralympics, has helped her redefine what it means to face challenges with resilience. Siobhán uses her platform to address the need for representation and the importance of visibility for people with disabilities, challenging stereotypes in both the sports and business worlds. In addition to her sporting achievements, Siobhán holds a degree in Business Management from the University of Worcester, adding further depth to her understanding of teamwork and leadership. Her experience in public speaking includes hosting charity events, presenting in front of government officials and royalty, and delivering regular talks to schools and universities. Siobhán’s message is one of empowerment, offering a compelling perspective on overcoming adversity and fostering inclusivity across all areas of life.
