Testimonials from Teachers

"It was wonderful to welcome Luke into our school this afternoon. He spoke to a group of year 10 learners of many of whom have already sat some GCSE exams. They are an extremely able year group and they the delivery of what Luke has said really made them think and focus and they were completely engaged throughtout the whole of Luke's talk.

Luke's journey has been emotional and some of the responses from our learns showed that emotion. I'm sure the clear messages that came across were extremely effective for this year group and I've now actually invited Luke back to speak to all of our years groups as his message was so powerful."

"Luke is a bright, enthusiastic and compelling young man, who has spoken in public on numerous occasions on behalf of Sport Wales. Getting involved in sport and volunteering turned Luke’s life around, and he has worked hard to become a well-respected inspirational and influential speaker and volunteer. He works with young people to inspire and motivate them to have ambition and make the most out of their lives.

Luke speaks in a relaxed, eloquent and focused way that inspired the audience – and with some humour thrown in. He speaks in a way that changes people’s mindsets, is inspirational and is able to connect with the audience in a way that is a rare skill. His previous sessions are always very positively evaluated and receives great feedback from delegates. I would highly recommend Luke as a speaker at any event as he will be a significant leader in the future."
