Anne Dunham

Anne Dunham, who lived from 24 September 1948 to 11 May 2025, was a British para-equestrian who competed in the Paralympic Games. As a schoolgirl she worked at a local stable and by sixteen was running a yard of 80 horses at weekends. She was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis at 27 and used a wheelchair from 30, and at forty, when her husband sold his business, she bought a horse and began to compete. At Atlanta in 1996, riding Doodlebug, she won bronze in the individual mixed Kur trot grade II and gold in the open team event, and she later won a third consecutive team dressage gold as part of a team with Lee Pearson, Debbie Criddle and Nicola Tustain.
