SPEAKING

I was probably the most unlikely teenager to ever enjoy, or even be “good at” public speaking. “Can I lead this session?” I said one day to my youth worker when I was fifteen. She was understandably apprehensive at this request. Not because of my ability, but up until then, I didn’t speak, I mean I could physically speak but I was painfully shy, and had never been in an environment where I felt that my voice was valued. That I’d ever be listened to. I stood up and delivered that session with confidence that day, and since then I have never looked back.

Since those early school days, I have gone onto deliver speeches and talks for a wide range of events and organisations. I’ve spoken on Live Radio, delivered small group workshops for young people, lead conferences and shared lived experiences at World Mental Health Day events.

I am available for speaking, training and workshops for workplaces, charities, businesses, schools and youth organisations. My talks are written bespoke to you and cover the following topics:

  • Neuro-inclusion in the workplace

  • Neuro-inclusion for schools and youth services

  • Building an inclusive workplace

  • Personal development at work

  • Growing up neurodivergent (a lived experience perspective)

  • Neurodivergence and wellbeing

  • Celebrate YOU (an interactive workshop on inclusion for young people.)

To explore speaking, training and workshops for your organisation please get in touch or book a 30 minute meeting using the link below.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

  • "The presentation that Alice gave to fellow NHS colleagues was both thoughtful and authentic, which provided the space for attendees to consider more meaningful and considered questions about how we can be a neurodivergent-friendly employer. It has only strengthened the case of why we need to do things differently to the current processes in place."

    - Jack Welch, Chair of Without Limits Staff Disability Network. at Dorset County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust.

  • "Our company's EDI group invited Alice to a companywide webinar in late 2024. Alice delivered an impactful presentation that resonated deeply with the attendees across different departments and offices. Her insights on psychological safety, informed by her own lived experience, provided our wider community with valuable perspectives on creating a truly inclusive workplace. I'm grateful for how Alice shared her personal journey in such an authentic way, inspiring meaningful conversations about neurodiversity that continue to positively influence our company culture."
