Last night was the second Night of Adventure, a fundraising event for Hope and Homes for Children. Fifteen speakers kindly gave up their time to present to an audience of 400 people at the Vue cinema in Leicester Square, London.

Over the next weeks I will be sharing their talks on this site (like this).

For now I just want to  thank them all for their brilliant efforts and to point you towards their own exciting projects:
