Celebrating One Year To Go until the Invictus Games in Birmingham and what an inspiring show at the NEC last week. A huge thank you for having me along and lovely to see some familiar faces at the countdown event.

The Invictus Games is a multi-sport event for wounded & injured sick military service personnel and veterans. Founded by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, in 2014, the event uses the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation, and generate a wider understanding and respect for those who have served their countries.

Lovely to attend another Connect & Inspire event held at The Royal Society of Medicine for The Churchill Fellowships last week. Connect & Inspire is the charity's annual networking meeting and one that brings people of all walks of life together.

If you've not heard of the inspiring work that The Churchill Fellowship does, it's well worth reading through some of the amazing case studies and seeing how this small UK charity supports individuals to follow their passion for change, through learning from, and quite often traveling, the world.
