Marc Woods Motivational Speaker

Marc Woods travels around the world delivering motivational presentations.

He had his left leg amputated because of cancer when he was seventeen. The day after he had his stitches out he went swimming and within a year he was swimming quicker with one leg then he did when he had two. His dream was to simply be the best that he could be and just 18 months after he finished his chemotherapy he was selected to represent Great Britain.

He has now retired from swimming having competed internationally for 17 years, winning 12 Paralympic medals from 5 Games and a further 21 from either World or European Championships.

Marc is known for his inspiring story which is delivered in a self deprecating, humorous and moving manner.
