Who Am I?

I have more than 35-years experience within the military, law enforcement and charity professions and I have been a professional public speaker and lecturer for well over 12-years and have delivered many hundreds of enrichment lectures and after dinner/luncheon talks to groups and organisations all around the UK and overseas.

What Do I Do?

My talks last approximately 45 minutes, but can easily be adjusted (longer or shorter) as to the specific needs of the client group. All my talks are illustrated via slides and feature video clips with sound content and I can either provide my own projector/speakers/etc. or make use of the equipment provided at the client venue. I live in North Somerset, however, I am happy to travel throughout the UK to the presentation venue, or I am happy to deliver any of my presentations via Zoom/MS Teams or any other standard virtual platform as requested.

Who Are My Talks For?

My repertoire of presentations are best described as enrichment lectures and as such, they are ideally suited for mixed audiences of all ages and offer engaging and stimulating subjects, that are perfect for after dinner/luncheon meetings, or other gatherings that seek to offer a high-energy performance that will be engrossing for the audience.

Why Choose Me?

My talks are high energy and entertaining for audiences of all kinds. I am the author of all my presentations and all are of subjects that have impassioned me over the years and this passion drives a desire to share the stories of my subjects in an enriching manner for my audiences. It is always a pleasing indictment to be able to say, that I rarely end up delivering just one of my talks to most groups, as I will usually be asked to return after an initial visit for a repeat performance with another topic in the future.

Fee:

My fee is determined by the type of event and distance travelled from my home-base in North Somerset. My typical fee for a community group would begin at £75 – £250 dependent on location and requirements of the presentation. Please feel free to get in touch if your event falls outside of the above parameters if your have a special requirement – I am always prepared to negotiate and I may be able to assist with very short notice presentations if free. I am happy to travel throughout the UK, however this would be subject to additional travel costs for fuel and accommodation and other expenses as appropriate to the situation.
