Great Stories + Fantastic Causes

SpeakerNet is your index to great UK public speakers

Tasked with the problem of finding a speaker or entertainment for an upcoming meeting or event? SpeakerNet is here to help. With our index of UK wide speakers, both charitable and paid, plus all kinds of after-dinner entertainers, you are sure to find someone to fit the bill.

Our filters and search tools make it easy for speaker-finders to engage just the right person for their next event.

SpeakerNet is not an agent. We are an introduction service. Once you are in communications with a speaker or entertainer all the arrangements are between you. All we ask is that you report back your experience to help others in the future

All sorts of clubs and associations can use SpeakerNet; U3A, Rotary, Inner Wheel, 41 Club, Womens Institute etc.

Our listed public speakers cover a wide range of topics such as History, Sport, Life Skills, Science, Hobbies and Travel. Some of our speakers charge a fee, some just expenses and some would like support for their Charities

SpeakerNet is free to use, however you may come across the occasional advert. In addition, some speakers pay a little extra to bring their listing to your attention.

Kind Words

Both Dr Ann Featherstone and Andrea Tse presented really fascinating talks to our group and as a result they are coming again to speak on a different subject. Thank you to SpeakerNet.

SpeakerNet is a great way to get your name out there, and it's totally free! It's also a good way for groups to find and contact speakers in their area, with useful details such as cost, subjects offered, travel expenses and other requirements. All in all,a jolly good thing! Penny Wheat

I just wanted to say thankyou for making the connection of speakers to events possible. I’ve had several enquiries already and now have a couple of firm opportunities booked into my diary – all as a direct result of Speakernet!

SpeakerNet has emerged as an indispensable platform for both speakers and groups seeking engaging presentations. I have found it to be really effective in promoting my talks and securing bookings. Groups appreciate the ease of finding suitable talent. Among other speakers on here I enthusiastically recommend SpeakerNet for its ability to connect speakers with diverse audiences and foster meaningful engagements. The site's user-friendly interface, comprehensive speaker profiles, and free membership make it a standout resource for anyone involved in the world of public speaking, Ian K Davidson

I just wanted to say that after a few years of being on Speakernet and having had 96 enquiries and delivered many talks during that time, I continue to be grateful for your existence. Mrs H E Bennett

Thank you SpeakerNet and thank you for all you do. I've had nearly 50 talk enquiries via SpeakerNet since 2020. Keep up the great work! David Ramsden MBE

We've been advertising our talks/presentations with you for the last 5 years or so. We've had so many enquiries via your excellent site, that with recommendations as well, our diary fills very quickly. To anyone thinking of publicising their talks or needing one SpeakerNet is the site you will need. Brian and Jacqueline Sutton

The last two enquiries has led to two confirmed talks bookings for next year. Once again, thank you, for your splendid site. The talks I give have been very successful with many repeat bookings. The research for the talks takes me to all sorts of places and the people I meet there plus the audience members at my presentations certainly enrich my life. Mrs Frances Raftery

Thanks to Speakernet my part-tine hobby of researching and giving talks has turned into almost a full-time occupation. Local synagogue, church and so many other groups have discovered this Aladdin's lamp of speakers. Judy Karbritz

I have quite easily recruited twenty-five speakers for our [Knaresborough & District Men’s Forum] 2026-2027 season. Many, the better part of two thirds I should say, through your excellent website. Many thanks, and keep up the good work. Peter.

What a great resource the SpeakerNet website is for both speakers and speaker finders. As a speaker I have had some really interesting engagements via the site. I would certainly recommend it as a place to be listed. Sandy Leong

In my experience SpeakerNet.co.uk is the one site for speakers and groups that really works! It is easy to use and opens up an Aladdin’s cave of entertaining and informative talks for anyone faced with the increasingly onerous task of speakers. I have gained several bookings via the site and made many new friends in groups across the country. Nick Dobson

A big thank you to SpeakerNet. What a great service for speakers. I always recommend this website to speaker secretaries when I give talks around the country. If my fellow speakers do the same, it will be in all our interests. I can't thank SpeakerNet enough. A brilliant service! Graham Short

Speakernet is an amazing resource for organisations looking for speakers. Over the last few years, I've had some fabulous engagements speaking to literary societies, universities, inner wheel districts, WI and U3A groups as well as many independent organisations. It's been so rewarding. Thank you. Helen Astrid
