Meeting True Excellency

Every once in a while, albeit a rather long one, an opportunity arises in which one encounters an uplifting and inspiring person. A genuine personality. Such an opportunity presented itself on April 23rd at Britské Centrum, which facilitated a meeting with His Excellency, Mr. Matt Field, Ambassador of the United Kingdom to the Czech Republic.

Although the discussion time allowed only twenty minutes in His Excellency’s busy timetable, it enabled our students to ask Mr. Field sometimes difficult questions, all of which were still addressed in a polite and diplomatic, yet humane manner.

It was our great pleasure to meet His Excellency and we truly hope for yet another such opportunity in the future.

We would also like to thank Britské Centrum JU for such a unique inspirational opportunity which stems from the great work done by this institution.
