Have you ever wondered how a person’s roots shape their journey? In this episode of The Good Listening To Show, Chris Grimes chats with his father, Colin Grimes, to uncover the remarkable story of a man who started in the modest town of North Ormsby and ended up making a significant impact in Uganda. Born in a working-class area tied to the iron and steel industry, Colin's path was anything but ordinary.
He was among the first in his community to pass the plus examination, paving the way for his university education and a life marked by social mobility. Colin credits much of his success to the mentorship of his scoutmaster, who ignited his passion for learning and improvement. This mentorship not only shaped his educational pursuits but also inspired his lifelong commitment to group activities and community problem-solving.
His journey took him to Uganda, where he built meaningful relationships across different societal levels. Throughout the conversation, Colin reflects on the importance of staying active and the synergy that comes from collaborative efforts. He shares insights into his personal growth and his desire to leave a lasting legacy, touching on themes like social mobility, mentorship, and the value of exercise.
