LOOKING FOR INSPIRATION? OVERCOMING CHALLENGES.

This was the title of our last event which brought together staff from across NHS Lanarkshire, NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde and staff from a range of Special Health Boards.

Our speaker, Karen Darke, a paraplegic adventurer who has pursued an ambitious programme of challenges with remarkable determination, after a traumatic fall from a Scottish Sea Cliff at the age of 21, shared valuable insights into seeking out and facing challenges. Karen left the audience truly inspired with her stories which had many parallels with the courage, capability and determination needed when managing difficult situations at work and in life generally.

Karen has recently been recognised by Cosmopolitan at their”Ultimate Women of the Year” awards for “Fun, Fearless Females”
