George Bullard's Biography
George Bullard is a renowned world record-breaking explorer, endurance athlete and internationally recognised speaker. Known by fellow explorers as a pioneer in the world of adventure. George’s remarkable early feats were eternalised by the world’s greatest living explorer, Sir Ranulph Fiennes, who described his achievements as “genuinely ground breaking” – and that was when George was just 19 years old. By this time he had already swum the English Channel, at 14 years old, before completing the world’s longest unsupported polar journey in history before his twentieth birthday.
Over the last decade George’s achievements have continued to astonish. Since setting the bar reasonably high following his debut record, the 113-day polar journey that remains unbeaten to this day, George has continued to go from strength to strength. From leading expeditions, to travelling, trekking, touring, sailing and swimming his way through some of the most extreme conditions on Earth, George maintains a penchant for inhospitable conditions. Most notably completing another world first by kayaking across the North Atlantic Ocean, remaining at sea for 66 days.
George takes pride in his achievements however he remains grounded and uncomplacent, preferring to be thankful for past experiences and recognising the part that luck had to play in his significant successes.
George delivers talks on the international stage, covering multiple topics. From mental wellness in the workplace, risk management to leadership under pressure and resilience. George provides engaging, energetic and enthusiastic presentations and helps to unlock innovative out-of-the-box thinking within your team, allowing participants to learn vital new skills intrinsic to both individual and team performance and development.
