Award-winning travel writer and broadcaster, Simon Parker, has reported from well over 100 countries for the BBC, The Telegraph, and Amazon Prime. In this multi-media presentation of short films, photos, audio clips, and anecdotes he talks about cycling 3,427 miles around ‘Pandemic Britain’ in 2020 and 2021.
He travelled to the furthest corners of Britain to find out how the pandemic had impacted people of all backgrounds. This is a ground-level portrait of Britain with dozens of unique stories. He also talks about his own struggles with anxiety, bereavement, and mental health.
The talk will be followed by a Q&A and a book signing.
