Evening Talk by Simon Weston OBE

Event Date: 
03/03/2015 - 7:30pm
Venue: 
RAMM, Queen Street, Exeter

In 1982 the Sir Galahad was destroyed in Bluff Cove on the Falkland Islands. On board was Simon Weston, Welsh Guardsman, a name and face that was going to become well known for his struggle to overcome his injuries (46% burns) and redefine his role in life.

Simon’s message is one of achievement, of triumph over adversity, of seizing the moment and succeeding. This event has been organised to accompany the Faces of Conflict exhibition which will be at RAMM from 17 January to 5 April 2015.

The exhibition will be open to view between 5.30 and 7.15pm on this evening.
