Laura had her call-up to the British Pony team back in 2005 with Noble Springbok, where they won team gold and individual bronze. Following this success, she was then selected to represent Britain on the Junior team in 2006 with Fernhill Sox (team gold and individual bronze) then again in 2007, where she brought home double gold with Rayef.
In 2009, Laura won the National Under-21 Championship title and was also selected to represent Britain at Young Rider level, where she earned team and individual gold titles.
After receiving her first senior squad selection in 2011 with Rayef for the European Eventing Championships in Luhmuhlen, she was selected for Blair European Championships in 2015 with Grand Manoeuvre.
She competed as an individual at the European Championships in Luhmühlen in 2019 with London 52.
The delayed Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games saw the eventing team from Britain, including Laura and London 52, win team gold with a record-breaking combined low score of 86.3. Laura has since been awarded an MBE to celebrate her successes and services to equestrian sport. Less than a year later, she was back on the podium when she and London 52 lifted the Badminton Horse Trials trophy – a childhood dream achieved.
In 2022, Laura and London 52 travelled to Pratoni del Vivaro, Italy for the FEI Eventing World Championship. The team just missed out on medals, finishing fourth with a combined score of 100.9.
