Sir Ranulph has, through his expeditions, raised large amounts for charities. He has led 22 major expeditions to remote parts of the world including to both Poles and (with Mike Stroud) last year successfully completed the challenge of running 7 marathons, in 7 days on 7 continents only 3½ months after a massive heart attack and double by-pass operation.

 

He planned, organised and took part in the first polar circumnavigation of Earth., personally raising over £29 million in sponsorship (1900 sponsors from 18 countries) along the way

 

Other expeditions include the discovery of the lost Arabian city of Ubar, The first hovercraft ascent of the Nile, the first crossing of Antarctica and the Arctic Ocean, and the first unsupported crossing of the Antarctic Continent.

His Talk

Sir Ranulph Fiennes was selected by IBM New York out of 700 top international speakers as their key motivational speaker for 65 major conferences world-wide. AMWAY selected him as their main motivational speaker at four key European conferences each attended by an audience of 13,000 distributors. BT, JP Morgan, British Airways and many others have used Fiennes as their after dinner speaker for small groups of top-level managers.

 

If you want your audience, large or small, both entertained and inspired, Sir Ranulph Fiennes is your speaker. He tells with humour how from inauspicious beginnings and false starts he reached the pinnacle of his chosen profession. He won through against international rivals, by hard work, enormous commitment, lateral thought and teamwork to achieve goals previously considered impossible

 

You can choose either a 30 to 45 minute talk without illustrations or a one hour illustrated presentation. Sir Ranulph is also happy to be involved in Question and Answer sessions. He also presents awards, prizes and opens new ventures of all kinds.
