Speakers Collective members are experienced professionals, the majority speaking from lived experience. They can provide a variety of services from keynote speeches, lunch and learns, half-day and full day workshops and consultancy. They are passionate about ending stigma.

Support network

We provide a community of support for those who work alone, share their lived experience and discuss social issues within a range of settings.  We do this by meeting weekly (virtually) and providing training, networking and opportunities for collaboration.

training and mentoring

We are committed to supporting the next generation of speakers and provide mentoring and support for new members.

safety and quality

We recognise that many schools, corporate and third sector organisations look for outside speakers on these topics, but often don’t know how to assure safety and quality.  All our speakers are regularly peer-reviewed, learn and work collaboratively and have signed up to their own pledge of best practice.
