Harford and her family emigrated to New Zealand when she was five years old.[3] Her family originates from Lasekau on the island of Bau.[4] In 2010, she appeared in three matches for Fiji,[1][5][6] as the team's inaugural captain.[4] From 1985 to 1987 she played for the New Zealand national women's indoor cricket team.[3]
In 2011 Harford suffered a stroke, which left her paralysed on one side of her body.[6] She took up cycling to regain movement and began competing in road chair races.[5]
