LAURA BINGHAM ~

"Persistence is the difference between those that make it and those that don't."

Laura has spent the past decade proving that big adventure isn't reserved for elite athletes. From cycling 7,000km across South America with no money to leading the first descent of the Essequibo River, her expeditions turn discomfort into purpose - and inspire thousands to take on their own.

She is a children's author, television presenter, and explorer that fundraise for causes she believes in.
