Rebecca Achieng Ajulu-Bushell is not your ordinary swimmer. Born in Warrington, England, to a Kenyan father and British mother, Rebecca swam internationally for Kenya, winning two gold medals at the 2008 African Swimming Championships. She made history in 2010 by becoming the first black woman to swim for Britain.

After retiring from competitive swimming in 2012, Rebecca pursued a career in communications and media, setting up her own agency, Nyar K'Odero Group, before turning to writing and filmmaking. Her critically acclaimed documentary, Breakfast in Kisumu, was nominated for the IDFA Competition for Short Documentary and secured a distribution contract with the streaming platform, True Story. Rebecca's essay, Hegemonic America, also won the annual US National 'Justice For' essay prize.

Rebecca is an advocate for greater diversity in swimming and has spoken out about her own experiences of isolation and loneliness during her career as an elite international swimmer. Join us for an exclusive interview with this remarkable athlete and trailblazer.
