Margaret Mary Kelly, MBE (born 22 September 1956), later known by her married name Margaret Hohmann, is an English former competitive swimmer who represented Great Britain in the Olympics and FINA world championships, and competed for England in the Commonwealth Games.
Kelly competed in the 1976 and 1980 Summer Olympics, winning a silver medal in 1980 in the women's 4×100-metre medley relay alongside teammates Helen Jameson, Ann Osgerby and June Croft. At the 1976 Games she had competed in the 100-metre breaststroke, 200-metre breaststroke, and 4×100-metre medley relay, reaching the final in all three events. In 1980 she swam just the 100-metre breaststroke in addition to the relay medal-winning swim, where she finished fourth in the final in a time of 1:11.48. She came out of retirement to compete at the 1988 Summer Olympics in Seoul, after giving birth to her first child, Robbie.
She represented England at the 1974 British Commonwealth Games in Edmonton, Canada, and the 1978 Commonwealth Games in Christchurch, New Zealand. She won a silver and two bronze medals at the 1978 Games. She went on to swim at her third Commonwealth Games in 1990 and was a finalist in the women's 100-metre breaststroke at the age of 33.
She has coached the University of Nottingham swim team and is now chief coach at Nottingham Leander Swimming Club.
She now lives in Nottingham, has three children Robbie, Suki and Georgia, and works for Nottingham Community Housing Association in resident involvement.
