Inspiring Speakers
Hannah Escott, GB Cycling Team Racer and World Series Champion
Experience the much acclaimed “Dare to Dream”; the story of a girl who went from cycling to school to racing for her country. Learn about the hard work, determination, and multiple challenges faced as she journeyed from school girl to champion.
Hannah Escott’s presentations have inspired thousands of adults and young people. Her ability to motivate has helped many young people to access a wider education, including successfully encouraging disaffected youth back into mainstream education.
Hannah’s insight and perspective provides the basis for a positive work ethic amongst academically challenged pupils, and those lacking motivation, helping them along their own journey to success.
Her presentation talks about: overcoming barriers and not giving up, working hard for something worthwhile, showing commitment and dedication, healthy lifestyle choices, and the power of young women.
Hannah initially decided to offer her story after hearing of too many young people who give up their talents and hobbies at age 14/15 so they never see what they could achieve and young people who claim that they have nothing to get out of bed for.
“Everyone needs something, something that makes them enthusiastic and determined, it could be anything; sport, art, music, studies, it does NOT matter as long as it makes you feel alive!”
