How Not to Die in Greenland
An evening at Wedgewood Farm and Makery. Thursday 13 August 2026.
Wedgewood backed the Greenland crossing before I ever clipped into the harness, and their nougat travelled in my sled for every one of the 553 kilometres. So this evening is not really a booking. It is a thank you, and the first talk in Wedgewood's Positively South African series. One night, one story from the ice, and the four ideas that carried me across it: resilience, agency, positivity and gratitude.

Thursday 13 August 2026
Doors and pre-drinks from 5pm. Talk starts at 6pm.
Light snacks and the fire afterwards.

553km across the Greenland ice sheet. 29 days on the ice. And the story of what it takes to keep going when everything says stop. Big visuals, real stories, and four ideas you will take home with you. Afterwards we carry on around the fire.
