Bonita Norris
Record-breaking Adventurer
Bonita Norris is one of the UK's leading adventurers, a youth ambassador for numerous education institutions and previously nominated Cosmopolitan Woman of The Year. Bonita is a beacon of what it is possible to achieve with enough determination.
"The world's youngest person to reach the summit of Mt Everest and the North Pole"
Add to my shortlistIn Detail
Bonita has broken mountaineering records, becoming the first British woman to ever climb the world's 4th highest peak, Mt Lhotse; considered a technically much more difficult climb than Everest. She lives and breathes inspiring others to step outside their comfort zones, whether that be through the Get Outside campaign, her motivational talks, leading teams on Kilimanjaro or through her own extreme endeavours. Her story reveals the power of small steps, and maybe some stubbed toes on the way. From a life-changing phone call to an indoor climbing wall to the tallest summit above sea level... Bonita's journey translates to the highs and lows we experience in our everyday lives.
WHAT she OFFERS YOU
In her presentations, Bonita makes every individual reflect upon their own life goals and the challenges they face, and equip them with the techniques she used to get through her toughest moments. Her message of marginal gains, not giving in, and always keeping our minds open to new opportunities and challenges is as relevant to graduate's as it is the board of directors.
