Earlier this week we welcomed Colin Jackson CBE to RAF Cranwell

Earlier this week we welcomed Colin Jackson CBE to RAF Cranwell.  Some of you may have attended this event, organised by the Force Development Sqn, as part of a programme of keynote speakers who share their experiences in order to inspire others.

Colin has developed into a hugely important figurehead for diversity, inclusion and mental health over the last 2 years.  His open and connectible honesty has captivated the media and live audiences alike, as he speaks from the heart about the stressful demands competing at the highest level, as well as the impacts of anxiety, eating disorders and body dysmorphia.  Drawing on his experience he covered key areas, such as mental health and resilience, self-motivation, inspiration and the courage to be the best you can be.

Thank you to those who organised the event, to everyone who attended and particularly to Colin for sharing such personal experiences.
