"It’s been a pleasure to work with Matt, the whole process from sourcing an appropriate speaker to the event itself has been really straight forward. Working together with regular communication has enabled us to progress with the event without any worries, making booking a speaker one less thing to worry about when organising an event!"

"We recently hosted our first annual Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging Day, and had a day full of external speakers hosting truly exceptional talks. We wanted the day to celebrate our rich diversity, and with the speakers arranged through Champions we were able to do exactly that.
Chris arranged a briefing call with all of our speakers a few weeks before the event so they could really get an understanding of what we were looking to gain from the day, and in particular from their talks. The result was fantastic - inspiring, thought-provoking and educational sessions, and the feedback from all colleagues who attended was brilliant.
This was the first time arranging external speakers through Champions, and it certainly won't be the last. The support on the day was fab, and Chris was on hand throughout should there be any issues (there weren't by the way, the speakers turned up on time and were fully briefed and ready to go). Working remotely has brought with it its own set of challenges, but organising the speakers on the day was certainly not one of them.
Thanks so much for your help in making the day such a success, I can't wait to work with you again in the future (starting with the next speaker we've got lined up in a few week's time!)."

"I write as Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Dean of the Faculty of Business and Law at De Montfort University, Leicester. On a number of projects, Champions plc has worked with both the wider university and the Faculty and have always been highly professional and extremely enthusiastic in all aspects of their work. They have access to leading entrepreneurs in all spheres of business and commerce as well as leading public sector personnel. Probably the best example of their involvement with DMU has been via sponsorship of Fox’s Lair, a business course module with some thirty distinguished entrepreneurs acting as mentors, something which serves to provide direct contact to the world of business for our undergraduate students. It is a tremendous success and Champions plc are at the heart of it.
My experience over many years has been that Champions plc provides a bespoke service of the highest standard."

"I would like to say that it was a pleasure working with Champions on the night of our Celebrity Dinner. Both of our speakers were happy to speak to guests, sign autographs and pose for photos where required. Willie did a fantastic job with the live auction, pulling some good bids in when it seemed unlikely. Nothing was too much trouble and I would recommend them to anyone else looking at potential speakers at events."

"Wow. A true gentleman. Polite and courteous to everyone. Peter’s speech to my boys was delivered to perfection and on a level that the boys understood. He spoke about his beginnings in his career and how hard it was then.
He urged my players to try to achieve there goals and if it happens then all well and good but if it doesn’t just make sure you enjoy your football
He spoke about the hand of god goal and other key moments in his playing career that kept my boys interest and glued to there seats. Presented each boy with there trophy and smiled all the way through. He then signed autographs and posed for photos with everyone. I cannot thank you enough for arranging this for me as the teams had an excellent night. I would recommend Peter Shilton to any one having a football function. A true gentleman and a legend. I look forward to using your company for next year’s presentation but honestly think it would be hard to beat this year’s event. Thanks again."

Our charity fundraising event is organised by people who also have a day to day job but Champions Plc took the stress out of booking the celebrity and were very easy to deal with when we had timings changes. In the 21 years of running the event this was the smoothest experience we’ve had with booking celebrities. We’ll definitely be in touch for next year!

"The conference was a huge success and the session provided by Robin and Anya, through you, was brilliant.
Both the celebrities kept close to the agreed brief and were entertaining, informative and inspirational. There were lots of positive comments from delegates, many stating that the session by Robin and Anya was the best they had attended. They were also very accommodating when people wanted photographs and autographs, despite having to leave to catch a train.
I cannot praise them highly enough.
Thank you for your part in the organisation of the day, which was very smooth and hassle-free.
I hope to have the opportunity to work with you again.
Thank you once again"
