Late last year, Olympic rowing legend Sir Steve Redgrave was given the Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2011 BBC Sports Personality of the Year event.
Redgrave, a five-time gold medalist (1984 to 2000), was recognized for his huge contribution to rowing.
Since retiring from professional sports, Redgrave launched The Steve Redgrave Fund in 2001, raising over £5m for charity.
He also played a key role in helping England win the bid to host the Olympics in 2012 and is now committed to ensuring the event provides a lasting legacy for sport, as well as promoting the best of present day Britain around the world in the run-up to London 2012.
A favorite on the European lecture circuit, Redgrave was given a Knighthood in the 2001 New Year’s Honors List.
