 * * *

The Personal Everest Challenge is now complete.  On Wednesday 5th September, Geoff Holt, a yachtsman paralysed from the chest down, returned home to become the first disabled sailor to sail single-handed around Great Britain.  It was an epic journey that took him and his seven man crew a total of 109 days to complete.  He had sailed 1,445 miles and visited 51 destinations during one of the worst summers in history.

He is also much in demand as a motivational speaker.  For more information about Geoff and his range of speaking themes, please visit http://www.geoffholt.com
