I have recently been asked to speak at Napier College part of Edinburgh Uni on disability issues. I am CP sufferer who is also a motivational speaker and ex sn judo champion. What issue would you talk about if it was you speaking ?

@Judomandean for me it would depend on if the students are studying something in particular or if it will be mixed.
As an individual I stood alone.
As a member of a group I did things.
As part of a community I helped to create change! -
How exciting @Judomandean Congratulations!!
I do quite a bit of public speaking, and I think the best talks are something you are really passionate about. What would you like to hear if you were going to a talk?
I think I would like to hear about your journey to being a judo champion, that sounds really exciting!! Id like to know how you got there, what challenges you faced and what were the highlights of your career.Scope
