SpeakerTori James
Speaker's BiographyTori is the first Welsh woman to climb Mount Everest. She was a member of the first all-female team to ski to the Magnetic North Pole in a 360-mile polar challenge, and she holds the record for the longest open sea kayak in UK waters.
Over the last 20 years Tori has undertaken some of the world’s most extreme endurance challenges, setting many records and achieving what most people would consider impossible from surviving the death zone on Mt. Everest to racing across frozen sea ice in the Arctic.

Location: The Research Crucible, Computational Foundry., Bay Campus
