Michael Lambert is kayaking around the UK to raise awareness for Aortic Dissection Awareness UK, Aortic Dissection Charitable Trust and the RNLI.

About Me

My name is Michael Lambert, and in the summer of 2024 I will be circumnavigating the mainland UK in an Epic V8 GT Surf ski. I am undertaking this fundraiser in honour of my Mum, Caroline Lambert, and for all those impacted by Aortic Dissections.

This will be a record attempt. To achieve this I will need to cover 3200 km in under 40 days. Irrespective of the winds, tides and anything else the UK can throw at me, I will need to average more than 80 kilometres a day.

This website is a central hub where you can come to read about and engage with my journey. This will include information about my background, the inspiration behind the fundraiser, the discipline it’s taken to get this far, as well as details about logistics, and training.

The circumnavigation will begin on a date between May 30 and June 10, depending on weather and tidal conditions.

The unseen support

Thank you to my sponsors.

I wanted to take the opportunity to say a HUGE thank you to the companies, people and organisations that have supported me so far.
