Summer Paralympics appearances (overview)

Great Britain competed at the 2024 Summer Paralympics in Paris, France, from 28 August to 8 September 2024. This was Great Britain's seventeenth consecutive time competing at the Summer Paralympic Games since the first Games in 1960. UK Sport set the team a target of winning between 100 and 140 medals at the event.[3][4]

The team was made up of athletes from the whole United Kingdom including Northern Ireland (whose people may elect to hold Irish citizenship and are able to be selected to represent either Great Britain or Ireland at the Paralympics).[5] Additionally some British overseas territories compete separately from Britain in Paralympic competition.

British track and field athletes achieved quota places for the following events based on their results at the 2023 World Championships, 2024 World Championships, or through high performance allocation, as long as they meet the minimum entry standard (MES). An NPC can enter an eligible athlete in an unlimited number of individual events within their classification (or, on occasion, in a higher classification if its open to lower classifications) - as long as the athlete has achieved an MES (minimal entry standard) performance in each respective event.

Paralympics GB announced the first tranche of ten athletes selected to compete in Paris on 21 June.[9] The second and final tranche of 23 athletes was announced in 25 July.[10] Dan Greaves and David Weir will both be competing at their seventh Games with Greaves seeking a seventh consecutive medal.

Great Britain earned quota places for the following events through the 2023 ICF Canoe Sprint World Championships in Duisburg, Germany and the 2024 ICF Paracanoe World Championships in Hungary.

While each nation may only gain one quota place per event, a canoeist who gains such a quota can contest both events in their classification, meaning Great Britain can enter two canoeists in eight of the events, having won separate quota places in the kayak and outrigger events in the Men's L2 and L3, and Women's L2 and L3 classifications.[17]

On 1 July 2024, Great Britain announced a team of nine canoeists including Jeanette Chippington who will be competing at her eighth Games having debuted in swimming at Seoul in 1988.[18]
