Darren Edwards

He/him

Inspirational speaker and leading authority on resilience and teamwork

Darren Edwards is a former mountaineer and Army Reservist who sustained a life-changing injury in the summer of 2016. The near-fatal climbing accident would leave Darren permanently paralysed from the chest down. With determination, grit and positivity, Darren has overcome adversity by becoming a Disabled Adventurer, Expedition Leader and Motivational Speaker.​

Lucky to survive Darren Edwards made an important and life-changing commitment to myself – he wouldn’t be beaten. Refusing to let the word disability define who he is as a person, Darren has committed ​to helping challenge the perception of what those with a disability ​can achieve.
