Around the World

Please feel free to forward this on to anyone who may be interested...

Around the World' enrichment talks with Roddy Bray

Do you, and perhaps your teens, need some lockdown inspiration?   


Roddy Bray is offering six illustrated 'Around the World' enrichment talks in July

 
Roddy is an anthropologist ('the study of people'), interested in human nature, community and meaning. His talks explore humanity through time and in different environments.. from Bushmen in the Kalahari to the impact of AI and bio-engineering. He is an engaging and entertaining storyteller who enlarges our view and brings fresh perspectives on the world.  

With over 20 years' experience as a culture guide he has worked for major US universities and helped lead expeditions for Silversea, Scenic and National Geographic in 35 countries. He planned successful expeditions trekking to the South Pole (2015), and cycling Twickenham to Tokyo (2019).

Each talk is fully illustrated with images, and is followed by an opportunity for questions and interaction.

 

The cost of this series of six talks, to be held over three weeks, is £75 per family (by donation - please adjust according to your means). 

 

Talks, with discussion, are one hour and will be given via zoom at 9pm (UK time) on Tuesdays and Thursdays, beginning Tuesday 14th July (thus 4pm New York, 2pm Denver, 1pm San Francisco and 8am+1d Auckland)

 

More details are in the attached PDF.

 

Please sign up via Eventbrite as soon as possible and you are welcome to forward this to others who may be interested.

Backdoor: Round The World 9pm UK

Dear Friends + Family,

I wrote a couple of weeks ago to say I was 'flying a kite' and giving 6 talks online.. and blow me down they've been a great success.  But the time hasn't worked for everyone, especially those working, or in the US.

Thus I am going to run the series again at 9pm UK time.  The details are below.

Here is the 'backdoor' for you..  may I also take the liberty of sending you the details that can be forwarded on to others who may be interested? This includes a link for them to sign up and make a donation. I will do that shortly.

Please don't share this direct link!  


All talks are at 9pm (UK time)...  (thus 10pm RSA, 4pm New York, 2pm Denver, 1pm San Francisco and 8am+1d Auckland)
