Lewis Moody MBE is a Rugby World Cup winner, former England captain and motivational speaker, delivering inspiring talks on leadership, teamwork and resilience
Affectionately known as ‘Mad Dog’, Lewis’ playing style was once described by fellow player Ben Kay as “like a puppy chasing a stick down the M25”
With two World Cup Finals, two Six Nations Championship Winner Medals, two Heineken Cup Winner Medals, and seven Premiership Winner Medals, the ex-England captain, Leicester Tigers and Bath stalwart is a true rugby legend, having won next to everything there is to win in the game he loves.
In 2012, an injury forced the most-capped England flanker to end his illustrious career.
Lewis has competed in many challenges and expeditions outside of rugby, including ‘Extreme Classrooms,’ alongside Alan Chambers MBE.
Extreme Classrooms is an annual expedition for children aged 11-16 from nationwide schools with complex social, behavioural, and/or learning difficulties.
Expeditions have included trekking to Everest base camp and cycling around Mont Blanc.

In 2015, Lewis participated in the extreme ‘Head North’ challenge, a 100km trek from Ice Camp Barneo to the Geographic North Pole. The trek raised over £250k, split between the Royal Marines Charitable Trust Fund and Lewis’s charity, The Lewis Moody Foundation.
Lewis and his wife set up the foundation to tackle illness & fulfil dreams for young families affected by serious illness.
In Sept 2025, Lewis Moody was diagnosed with motor neurone disease (MND), after developing unexplained weakness in his shoulder that led to further neurological testing.
