Speakers Profile - Peter Hughes

Bali bombing survivor

Travels From:
Perth

Fee Range: E

Peter Hughes as part of his long and courageous recovery has come to the realisation that he needs to share his and the story of all other Australians who were so tragically affected by an act of terrorism. He has therefore embarked on a career of public speaking to not only describe the events that occurred on that day but also to talk about the Australian Spirit that has become so much more evident since October 12, 2002.

Peter provides an emotional yet uplifting story from just an ordinary Australian who is now described as a 'hero' and one who has triumphed against the worst odds. He feels it is his place in life now to provide other Australians with hope and inspiration whilst also utilising this journey as a way to say thankyou to all Australians who were touched by events that happened in Bali, October 2002.
