Join us (Thomas Pocklington Trust) in conversation with Jesse Dufton from 5-6pm on Thursday 16 July 2020.

Jesse recently starred in the film Climbing Blind. Directed and produced by filmmaker Alastair Lee, this award-winning documentary shows Jesse’s epic ascent of the Old Man of Hoy. The film is still available on iPlayer and there is also an audio described version.

When Jesse is not climbing (or training for climbing) he is working as a Patent Engineer for Intelligent Energy.

Martin Sigsworth, TPT’s Senior Employment Manager, will be in conversation with Jesse to understand his career journey, what challenges and obstacles he has had to overcome and what advice he has for blind and partially sighted people looking to get on or progress their careers.
