Grylls has supported Ukraine since the early days of the full-scale invasion. His educational company BecomingX, in collaboration with Amazon and Accenture, is developing the BecomingX Ukraine online learning platform, designed to help Ukrainians. 

In December 2022, the famous adventurer visited Ukraine with a film crew and met with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, which became part of the War Zone: Bear Grylls Meets President Zelenskyy TV documentary. The TV show was released on Channel 4 in the UK on March 28. Straight after the premiere, it was announced that Grylls would be joining UNITED24 to promote the Rebuild Ukraine program. He is the first British person to join the platform. 

 

“After a year of resisting the Russian invasion, the support of people like Bear Grylls is very important. Together with other UNITED24 ambassadors, he will help spread the truth about the war and unite the world around helping Ukraine,"

— President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy.

“I'm so proud to be supporting UNITED24 and the people of Ukraine. You have shown such courage and determination in the face of adversity and are a global symbol of resilience and defiance. I'm looking forward to helping support United24 and creating a brighter future for all,”

— Bear Grylls.
