Having broken both her legs a few years ago and been told that she would never be able to do Karate again, Amy defied all the odds becoming the first Scot to represent Team GB at a major multi-sport event when she was selected for the European Games in Minsk, while she also won her first major championship medal when she took bronze at the European Championships and won silver at the Paris World Championships.
