Rhod Gilbert

In September 2013 Rhod led his first Velindre event with the Trek of a Lifetime to the Roof of Africa, Kilimanjaro and released a brilliant TV programme called Rhod v Kilimanjaro.
November 2015 saw Rhod lead a trek to Patagonia to celebrate the 150th anniversary of Welsh settlers arriving in South America, and in 2017 along with 50 other trekkers conquered a remote Inca trail culminating at Machu Picchu in Peru. In February 2019 Rhod spearheaded a trek along the Helambu trail in Nepal.
As well as raising hundreds of thousands of pounds through treks, there has been a series of memorable comedy evenings, with Rhod’s Hoof Cancer Right where it Hurts shows attracting the UK’s finest comedians including Greg Davies, Michael McIntyre and John Bishop.
