For six years Anthony Harding would travel across the Pennines from Greater Manchester to Leeds six days a week all in the pursuit of a dream.
And in 2022 it came true as he won 3m synchro gold at the Birmingham Commonwealth Games, alongside diving legend Jack Laugher.
The 21-year-old took up diving aged five and by 10 was training at the City of Leeds club, moving to the city permanently after finishing his GCSEs.
Harding’s potential for success was clear to see in 2018 when he won silver at the Youth Olympic Games.
Harding now partners Olympic gold medallist Laugher in the 3m synchro with the pair claiming the British title in their debut together earlier in 2022.
Their impressive start to life as a partnership also saw them claim European gold and World silver in the same event.
