back to Awards & NomineesThe Inspiration Awards - Rosie Swale-Pope

Rosie Swale-Pope has run a staggering 20,000 miles around the world to raise awareness of, and funds for, the ‘Prostate Cancer Charity’, after prostate cancer claimed the life of her husband.

The trip has taken the 61 year old, five years to complete in which she has had to tackle pneumonia, frostbite, a pack of wolves and even a polar bear.

She was also knocked unconscious as she tried to cross a raging river. Rosie carried all her belongings in a cart which she pulled from her waist.
