Jody Alan Cundy, CBE, born on October 14, 1978, is an English cyclist and former swimmer.

He is a decorated World and Paralympic Champion, who has represented Great Britain at seven Summer Paralympics – winning eight Gold, one Silver and three Bronze medals across swimming and cycling events.

In his earlier years, Jody, who was born with a deformed right foot which was amputated at the age of three, started swimming at aged 10.

After looking into disability swimming, his parents decided to get him involved, where he showed early potential, breaking swimming records for his age group.

He became a leading member of his local King’s Lynn club’s team and made his international debut at the swimming World Championships in Malta in 1994.

It was there he won gold in S10 100m butterfly and bronze in the S10 100m backstroke.

Jody also competed in the S10 Paralympic category.

In 2009 he was awarded an MBE for his services to Disability sport.

In 2017, this was upgraded to an OBE for his services to Swimming and Cycling, before receiving a CBE for services to cycling in 2022.

In cycling, he competes in the C4 events – which includes people with lower limb impairments or issues with lower limb functionality.

In August 2023, Jody won gold in the C4 1km Time Trial at the 2023 World Championships in Glasgow.

At the same event he set a new world record of 10.427 for the MC4 200m flying start.

Following his victory, it was revealed that the sports star will be joining the line up of famous faces taking part in Strictly Come Dancing 2023.
