Lola rowed for Surbiton High School and represented GB three times including the Junior World Championships where she won a silver medal, before continuing her rowing career whilst studying for an English degree at Newcastle University.
The women’s quad of Lola Anderson, Ella Toa, Molly Harding and Lucy Glover won the first of six gold medals for GB, these combined with two silver medals resulted in GBs best-ever performance topping the medal table.

Congratulations to Lola from all at Surbiton High School and the Green and Silver Club.

Stewart Walker, Head of Rowing commented:

"This is an outstanding achievement for Lola and a testament to her hard work and determination and demonstrates what can be achieved when you put your mind to it. Lola is a great role model for the Surbiton High School Rowing Team and we look forward to seeing her with her medal.”
