Ed Jackson
Who is Ed Jackson?
Ed Jackson is a former rugby player whose life was changed after he was paralysed. He is now a leading motivational speaker.
What are Ed Jackson’s main achievements?
A former professional rugby player for Bath, London Welsh, Wasps and more, Ed Jackson’s life was changed forever when he suffered a devastating spinal injury in 2017 that left him paralysed from the neck down.
Despite being told he would never walk again, less than a year later he climbed to the summit of Snowdon. Since then, he has climbed countless mountains and become one of the most inspirational motivational speakers around.
In 2021, Ed released the best-selling book Lucky which was adapted into a film in 2024.
What kind of topics does Ed Jackson cover at events?
- Motivational – Ed’s optimism and resilience following his tragic accident is truly inspiring and it is these qualities that make him the perfect motivational speaker for every event. He can explain to your audience what inspired him to tackle the range of mountaineering challenges he has since achieved, as well as share lessons of peak performance and renewed hope.
- Diversity – Going from a professional athlete to disabled is an experience that could break most people; however, Ed has used this life-changing incident to show what can be achieved when you pursue hope. When not tackling breathtaking physical challenges, Ed can be hired as a leading diversity speaker who can discuss his experiences and mindset in depth.
- Rugby – In addition to his motivational speaking, Ed Jackson can also spend time talking about his professional rugby career – the highs and the lows.

Booking a speaker is made as straightforward as possible with Evolve. Start by browsing our website for the perfect speaker or call us directly to get a shortlist and advice. We can then get a quote on the price and ensure that the date is available. Once the deposit is received, we can put all the logistical details in place including sorting out the contract, travel accommodation etc. We will also provide a full brief to ensure that your chosen speaker meets your expectations.
The fee normally includes a keynote speech, as well as Q&A and meet and greet, but we can tailor the package to your needs and budget. Travel and accommodation for the speaker are normally charged separately but can be arranged by us.
Instead of having to approach each speaker individually, which can be challenging and time-consuming, we will take care of all of the legwork for you. The relationships that we have built up ensure that we are able to negotiate a fair price and take care of all the tricky logistical details that can otherwise cause a major headache. We ensure that a detailed contract is drawn up and are available to deal with any challenges that may occur along the way.
Each speaker has their own booking preferences. If you are looking to hire a renowned figure, we recommend booking 9-12 months before your event. If your dates are flexible, it’s often possible to arrange something on shorter notice. While we can accommodate bookings at any time, booking at least 3 months in advance ensures a smoother process and allows time to meet all your requirements.
Of course! One of our team would love to talk you through the range of speakers on our website and what they can offer to your next big event.
