In 1972 Apollo 16 Astronaut, Charlie Duke walked on the moon.

That was his walk with destiny.

Charlie Duke will speak to hundreds of school children on his visit to Scotland.    

Charlie will talk with the young people, show film of his historic adventures on the moon and take questions from them. He will show them science in action and explain how working hard at science, maths and technology led him to have an amazing career. He explains how they can choose a different path from those around them and reach their own goals.

His inspiring presentation encourages children to reach the highest levels of achievement as successful and confident individuals.

Charlie Duke discovered a passion that changed his life and now wants to inspire others to do the same.

As an entrepreneur, business executive, military officer, test pilot and astronaut, Charlie Duke brings to the speakers platform forty years of experience.  He will use his experience to benefit the children and inspire them to raise their aspirations and ambitions. He truly proves the sky is the limit. 

Each child has the potential to achieve in different ways.

All children can benefit equally despite their backgrounds because General Duke’s message is how he got to the moon despite terrible odds and high risk, yet the lessons of the space programme taught them to overcome adversity and fight against the odds to overcome difficulties and achieve highly.

If you choose to control your own destiny you need to set goals. Charlie Duke will encourage the actions the young people need to take to move toward their rightful destiny.
