Missed the Kendal Mountain Festival in November? No worries! The 2018 UK tour is hitting the road, and Beth French joins a line-up of inspiring speakers, including Anna McNuff, Olly Hicks (who’s spent 2.55 per cent of his life alone at sea in a rowing boat), ultra runner Damian Hall, Jack Harries and Mollie Hughes, celebrating exploration of some of the wildest places on earth in venues much closer to your home. Expect inspiring tales and a selection of the very best films from the festival.

From wheelchair bound to world-class athlete, Beth will be sharing her journey of tackling seemingly impossible feats of endurance and adventure, and exploring the many faces of triumph that she met in her attempt at completing the Oceans Seven swims in one year… The account of her 1am wildlife encounter in the Molokai Channel will give you goose bumps!

You can catch Beth at the Brighton, Salisbury, London and Canterbury shows.
