But the route he’s taken to reach t he top of his profession was anything but straightforward. Join us on Tues day 14th May to meet Stuart and hear his inspirational story.\n\nStuart is the Director of the University’s National Centre of Remote and Rural Me dicine\, based at our Westlakes Campus in Cumbria. As well as being a lead ing academic\, Stuart’s expertise in delivering urgent care and emergenc y medicine in remote locations has led to him taking on prominent roles as a consultant helicopter emergency medic and a member of the UK search and rescue team. His long and varied medical career has taken him over land a nd sea to some of the world’s most challenging and hostile environments. \n\nIt’s a far cry from Stuart’s early life\, when he emerged from a b roken home to struggle through a world of drugs and violence. He walked aw ay from school with no qualifications after being expelled (and to this da y Stuart has no A Levels at all). His lowest point came when he found hims elf in the back of a police car after being arrested for a firearms offenc e.\n\nIn this inspiring and entertaining talk\, Stuart will describe how h e eventually turned his life around and rose to become one of the country ’s leading medical experts. His insights will demonstrate why you should never accept\, or be limited by\, other people’s ideas of what is and i sn’t possible for your own journey.\n\nDoors will open at 6:30pm and ref reshments will be available. The talk will take place between 7:00pm – 8 :00pm and there will be a short Q&\;A session afterwards.\n\nOpen to an yone aged 14+.\n\nAge Policy for UCLan events\n\nAttendees Aged 16 and Abo ve:\n\nWe are pleased to welcome individuals who are 16 years of age or ol der to attend our events independently.
