Stephen Venables - In the Steps of Shackleton at Barrow and Cardigan

This week Stephen Venables will be bringing his lecture show In the Steps of Shackleton to Barrow-in-Furness and Cardigan in West Wales.

The first Briton to climb Everest without supplementary oxygen, Stephen has enthralled audiences with stories of his adventures for over forty years. In the Steps of Shackleton he brings Shackleton’s extraordinary expedition to cross Antarctica to life. Using his highly acclaimed photos of his own expeditions to South Georgia and his natural gifts as a storyteller, Stephen illustrates Shackleton's treacherous journey and captures the thrill of climbing, skiing and sailing in a place of haunting beauty.

Stephen is a superb lecturer - his slide shows are brilliantly illustrated, fast-paced, gripping, witty and full of fascinating historical background.
