Matthew Harding (powerlifter)

Gymnastics and Strength Sports

Matthew Harding is a British Paralympic powerlifter and swimmer, born on 15 July 1999. He competed in the men's 80 kg event at the 2024 Summer Paralympics, and at the 2026 Commonwealth Games he won the silver medal in the men's heavyweight event. The source describes him both as a powerlifter and as a swimmer, so his sporting record is not confined to the bench. He has athlete profile pages with the International Paralympic Committee, ParalympicsGB and Team England, the three bodies that list his Paralympic and Commonwealth Games appearances.
