Keynote Speeches
We offer keynote speeches on issues around race, masculinity, popular culture and education to schools and organisations looking to challenge and rethink their approaches.
All engagements start with an insights meeting with Jeffrey, so that he can understand your organisation’s context, needs and requirements. This ensures all keynote speeches are tailored to your event.
“A huge thank-you for an extraordinary keynote. We’ve had some wonderful feedback from both delegates and other presenters. I am in awe of the way that you weave together complex issues of our time in a way that is accessible and engaging, and most importantly provides a positive climate to open up the discussion. Simply brilliant!”
— NT, Charity Programme Manager
