Last Months Guest Speaker

Guest Speakers

Last meeting we heard from an inspirational speaker blinded from a young age as a result of a simple accident.

Nick Gleeson came along with his support worker Tracy and his trusty seeing eye dog Jarvis who sat throughout tied to his chair, happy to listen to the talk.

Nick related to many of his achievements throughout his life facing adversity.

He told how he climbed to the base camp of Mt Everest, as well as climbing Mount Kilimanjaro (Tanzania) and his competing in numerous marathon running events.

Another highlight event was walking across part of the Lake Ayre basin in South Australia.

Nick  has authored  two books detailing his lifelong exploits that he has undertaken, which all of us present acknowledging, that any able bodied person would have difficulty in them achieving the same.

It was revealed that his wife was also blind.

Overall a very inspiring presentation.

Yours truly presented an envelope to cover his travel expenses and  offered our warm appreciation for his captivating talk.

Nick responded following the visit by email that our club was one of the most friendly he had encountered on his recent corporate public speaking events.
