Climber Ben Heason Inspires Students

13th May 2018

Years 7, 8, 9 and 10 had another fantastic experience at school last week!

They listened attentively to an inspirational talk by top adventurer and climber Ben Heason. Ben is a motivational speaker who not only gave students an exciting insight on what is on offer outside of West Cumbria in the UK but energised us all with his fabulous awe-inspiring photographs and passionate tales of his exploits which included conquering the magnificent Angel Falls. You could have heard a pin drop amongst the captivated audience who had their aspirations sent to another level as he urged them to always give 100% and be the best they can be!
