Top Workplace Wellness Business Speaker: Alex Holmes

Alex Holmes is the founder of Anti-Bullying Pro, Deputy CEO of The Diana Award, a Queen’s Young Leaders ambassador, and Director of BBC’s Children in Need. Regarded as an expert on anti-bullying, he is also an advisory member of the boards of some major social media platforms, including TikTok, Spotify, Instagram and Facebook.

Growing up, Alex was on the receiving end of racial bullying behaviour, which developed into homophobic bullying. Determined to take a stand, he set up the Anti-Bullying Ambassadors Programme aged 15. Since then, he has helped train over 40,000 young people to stand up to bullying online and offline.

Whilst a champion for young people’s mental health, workplace wellness speaker Alex is a trusted expert on all issues relating to bullying and mental health, particularly keen on how people who are bullied at school can suffer from poorer job prospects and lack the ability to trust other adults in their workplace as they get older. His work has had a global impact on all ages and can help audience members build resilience and learn how to rise up against all forms of bullying in the workplace.
