In 2009, Sarah Outen became, at 24, the youngest woman to row solo across any ocean.

And at our recent Members' Weekend we were pleased to welcome her as one of our guest speakers, where she clearly impressed Mark Avery, our Conservation Director, as well as Paul Lewis, Head of Public Relations, with her tales of spending 124 days rowing from Australia to Mauritius.

Check out our video of Sarah from when she popped into see us at The Lodge nature reserve to chat about her remarkable adventure, including her encounters with albatrosses!
