Speakers for Schools: Adventures in Resilience: A Journey to Mental Well-Being

Ulysses Trust ambassador Jordan Wylie MBE delivered a talk to the Speakers for Schools network entitled: Adventures in Resilience: A Journey to Mental Well-Being on Thursday 10th October 2024 – World Mental Health Day.

Jordan is an award-winning adventurer, international bestselling author and one of the stars of channel 4’s BAFTA nominated shows “Hunted” and “Celebrity Hunted”. He is the national ambassador for The Ulysses Trust.

In 2023 he was awarded an MBE by His Majesty King Charles III for services to charity and education both in the UK and overseas. Jordan is an incredible role model for all young people, but he is especially inspiring to those who struggle with their mental health – being honest about his own challenging background, and his personal battles with mental health. His positive energy, inspiring messages and spirit of adventure is infectious, and Jordan is one in a million when it comes to his generosity of spirit, and his understanding of young people.

Here’s a recording of his presentation.
