A warm thank you to Mr Talan Skeels-Piggins who visited IBS of Provence on Friday 29th of January for an inspirational talk which left our students motivated and in utter respect and awe. Mr Skeels-Piggins shared the challenges he had to overcome following his sudden paralysis, both mentally and physically, which has driven him to surpass himself as a top skier, professional motorcycle competitor and race car driver as well as so many other accomplishments.
His passion is to show others that they can do anything they set their minds to and to show them that what seems impossible is indeed possible.
