Whilst live-in person events have now very much returned since the pandemic, there is still demand from companies wishing to run their events virtually, where attendees are in various location.

Working in tandem with Noisegate Studios in Leamington Spa, Inspirational Speaker on Performance Phil Olley, can provide a full keynote conference speaking package that ensures delegates are fully engaged and the sessions are highly interactive.

This is our April Speaker News round-up this month featuring feedback on Oli France, Anj Handa, Anne Wafula Strike, James Poulter, and Cerrie Burnell; we welcome James Knight and Araceli Camargo to the website; an updated biog from Alex Staniforth and Enda O’Doherty, Mike Greene and Stephen Whitton share new speaking clips

April marks Stress Awareness Month. Held every April since 1992 it aims to raise awareness of the causes of stress and how to ease and prevent stress. 

Stress is one of the most common causes of long-term work absence in the UK and the awareness month is also used to guide how employers can help support their staff and provide practical steps that can be taken to address stress and help staff feel more positive and productive at work.

If you are planning an event to mark Stress Awareness Month, here are some speakers we work with that might be of interest.

Our book of the month for April is “Heard the one about Identity Theft” by BAFTA-shortlisted Scriptwriter, Comedian and Television Presenter, Bennett Arron. Bennett had become one of Britain’s first major victims of Identity Theft and the book tells his story.

Everyone at Scamp Speakers would like to wish the very best of luck to two of the speakers we work with who are embarking on incredible challenges this year. Dan Keeley is running to Rome this April and later in the year, Penny Mallory will be rowing across the Atlantic – both supporting some fantastic charities.

April 2023 marks our 4th anniversary and I wanted to say a huge thanks to all the clients who have booked with us during that time and to all the speakers who have spoken for us over those four years.

From our first booking, who was Joanna Rowsell Shand, to our most recent, Darren Edwards (who we booked just yesterday at the time of writing) it has been a fun, challenging, and somewhat constantly changing journey so far.
