The resource content is taken from the conversations Jake has had with people in sport, business and the arts. Such as adventurer Bear Grylls, England Rugby manager Eddie Jones, actor Sam Heughan – discussing what drives them, their values, the importance of resilience and failure in achieving success. We hope to highlight the importance of having the right mindset for children to achieve what they want to in life.
Pint of Science is an international science festival, run by volunteers. It brings the researchers and members of the public together in local pubs. We believe that everyone has a place at the table to discuss the research going on both on our doorsteps and far beyond.
