September is the month when Balls, Parties and Speaking Engagements return from the summer break. I’ve spoken in numerous schools across the UK with my keynote ‘Once Bitten’ and have a busy few months coming up. My messages of Self Belief, Determination and Turning Your Ideas into Reality seem to be proving popular.
I was recently a guest at the Kinder Mountain Rescue team Ruby Ball with Edwina Currie and Alan Hinkes. It was quite a night and thankfully I escaped a ‘Strictly’ dance with feet like mine! Actually they’ve been struggling lately due to building work at home. I had no idea that plaster dust could cause such problems for my skin grafts. Well, we live and learn…
I found out about the event from a message sent on Twitter. You can find out more about the Kinder Mountain Tescue Team here…
The power of Social Networking amazed me this month. I had a request for critical illness insurance turned down because I climb. I posted one tweet on Twitter and suddenly had a newspaper article published, and interview on BBC Radio Derby and a news report on BBC East Midlands Today. Be aware that whatever you post on social networking sites is being watched..!
