Lauren Henry was born on December 21, 2001, in Lutterworth, Leicestershire, England. She began her rowing career at Leicester Rowing Club at the age of 13, following her twin sister into the sport. Henry’s dedication led her to advance through junior and U23 ranks quickly. In 2023, at the age of 21, she secured an overall win at the GB Rowing Team Senior Trials. This achievement led to her selection for the GB Women’s Quadruple Sculls crew. That same year, the crew set a British Record at the Varese World Cup and went on to become World Champions in Belgrade.
Her career reached a significant milestone at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, where she, alongside crewmates Georgie Brayshaw, Lola Anderson, and Hannah Scott, won Great Britain’s first-ever Olympic gold medal in the Women’s Quadruple Sculls. Their victory, decided in the final stroke against the Netherlands, marked a historic moment for British rowing. Following this Olympic success, Henry received an MBE, recognizing her contributions to the sport. She has been coached by Andrew Randell, Peter Sheppard, and Howard Marsh, who have been instrumental in her development.
After her achievements in the quadruple sculls, Henry transitioned to racing in the women’s single sculls in 2025. In her first senior event in the single sculls at the 2025 European Rowing Championships in Plovdiv, Bulgaria, she won a gold medal and set a new British record and European best time, which was the second fastest time ever recorded in the event. She also clinched a gold medal at the 2025 World Rowing Cup in Lucerne, Switzerland, and a silver at the 2025 World Rowing Championships in Shanghai, China, reaffirming her status as a top-tier athlete in her new boat class.
