Rebecca Adlington is Great Britain's most successful female swimmer, transforming from Olympic champion to respected sports pundit and entrepreneur with a mission to improve swimming education nationwide.
Rebecca's illustrious career includes four Olympic medals—two Gold in Beijing 2008 and two Bronze in London 2012—alongside recognition with an OBE. Since retiring in 2013, she has become a permanent fixture in swimming coverage for every major swimming competition, including multiple World Championships and Olympic Games.
Rebecca has also dedicated her post-swimming career to ensuring future generations have access to the water. Her Swim! initiative aims to make sure every child in Britain can swim 25 metres before leaving primary school. Delivered through premium, child-led centres across the UK, the programme focuses on building confidence and safety in the water from ages 0 to 11. She is also a Patron of Women in Sport, and an ambassador for Encephalitis International and Petals, supporting causes close to her heart.
Audiences can expect to gain insights into what it takes to perform under pressure, overcome challenges, and create meaningful legacies. Her talks inspire organisations to prioritise wellbeing, perseverance, and inclusivity in sport and beyond. Rebecca's authentic approach resonates with diverse groups, from corporate teams to educational institutions.
