SUMMARY:Talk: From Forres to the Arctic Circle
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to be working in collaboration with the Forres
  Business Association\, where one of its directors. Gavin Ellis\, a well k
 nown Forres businessman will share his experience of being called to assis
 t an attempt to row the Northwest Passage which had got into in difficulty
 .\n\nThis will be a lesson in Survival\, Support\, Diplomacy\, Culture and
  Traditions.\n\nHere's what Gavin says: "Aged 60 years old\, not in the pe
 ak of health\, I answered a call for help from my cousin Leven Brown ( hol
 der of several Guinness world records) who was attempting to row the North
 west Passage across the top of Canada and had run into difficulty. I said 
 yes! Seven days to Paulatuk inside the Arctic circle. What followed was an
  adventure and a series of life lessons which included listening\, politic
 s and diplomacy\; influenced by not only cultural differences and local tr
 aditions but also by a house fire. Three weeks of keeping my nerve and rea
 ssuring those around me. Then a race across the world. It necessitated me 
 drawing on all my skills and experiences from a child being brought up on 
 the Isle of Mull\, to my 35 years as an Innkeeper at Knockomie."\n\nRefres
 hments will be served before and after the event.\n\nDoors: 6.15pm\n\nBook
 ing is essential here.
