Stef Reid: From Heartbreaking Accident To Paralympic World Champion
The Energy Within - Short Film
Stef Reid is a British Paralympic long jumper and sprinter. She is a World Champion, four-time Paralympian, triple Paralympic medalist, and five-time world record holder. Stef has a degree in biochemistry, and her adventures off the track include acting, modeling—including being the first amputee to walk the London Fashion Week catwalk—and serving as Vice President for The Leprosy Mission UK and British Athletics.
Stef’s enthusiasm and approachability have helped her develop into an in-demand speaker and media personality. She is an international speaker with a portfolio that includes corporate keynote speeches, event hosting, guest lecturing, and consulting with the Vatican. Stef inspires and challenges audiences through her messages of resilience, perseverance, and adopting a growth mindset.
Some of her recent adventures include Dancing on Ice 2022, being part of the Channel 4 Tokyo Paralympic coverage, working as a BBC broadcast journalist for the Invictus Games 2022, and becoming the first British amputee to walk the London Fashion Week catwalk.
In her latest achievement, Stef broke a Guinness World Record in what may be one of the world’s most unexpected endurance feats: ironing the most garments in one hour while blindfolded. This playful but powerful challenge demonstrates her belief that pushing limits isn’t just about physical performance—it’s about daring to show up, take risks, and find excellence in the unexpected.
