He gave a fascinating and inspiring talk on the theme of Stronger Together, during the ultimate lockdown of 6 months on the International Space Station.

We got an insight into the preparedness and teamwork that it takes to make it into space, not to mention the training in inhospitable places on earth for days or weeks at a time including in caves and in NASA’s underwater laboratory NEEMO.

There were messages from him that were especially pertinent to us now, having a timetable and routine, making time to exercise and also giving yourself time to do something you enjoy.
