Thank you Dee Caffari MBE (who was the winner of the SES Pioneer with Purpose honorary award this year) for giving Scientific Exploration Society members and friends such an inspirational talk about her journey from secondary school PE teacher to world-record setting professional yachtswoman at the Royal Geographical Society last night. She is proof that anything is possible if one is committed and wants to do something bad enough!

(Dee Caffari MBE with SES Chairman Neil Laughton)
