At Great British Speakers, we’re proud to be working alongside the most sensational line-up of inspirational black speakers from a variety of cultural backgrounds and industries – all deeply motivational and passionate about BAME, cultural and workplace concerns. Our Black History Month motivational speakers are here to help businesses and event organisers support and educate their employees and/or audiences on these crucial matters.

Black History Month first came to prominence in the UK in the 1980s, with the first organised events taking place in London in 1987. The movement, which happens here in the UK every October, was first proposed by Black scholars in the US, looking for ways to challenge racism and celebrate black culture and the lives of black people who have done remarkable things around the world.
Despite this revolutionary movement and the rise of equality and diversity awareness, racism is still present in our everyday lives. This was no more evident than in 2020 when we witnessed the world come together in response to the deaths of George Floyd and Breonna Taylor in the United States.
The demonstrations of solidarity that followed sparked what became to be known as the #BlackLivesMatter movement, a worldwide movement for equality and justice again racial discrimination.
As a result of Black Lives Matter, Black History Month (BHM) 2021, was significant and yet in the months that followed, England players at Euro 2020 also became victims of racial abuse online, demonstrating that there is still a long way to go for racial equality. Black History Month continues to grow in strength each year and is an important reminder of equality and solidarity for the BAME community.

Our inspirational sports stars are some of the UK’s most well-known sporting icons, such as Olympic female boxer Nicola Adams and athletes Kelly Holmes and Colin Jackson who are not only experts in their field, but also excellent high-profile motivational speakers and entertaining awards hosts for any sports-savvy event. Our celebrity sports stars include players from all arenas, including football, rugby, cricket, darts, snooker and boxing. We also represent many Olympic and Paralympic athletics, many of which are also now popular sports commentators and can even be hired as presenters for sports commentary.
Whether aiming to inspire young audiences to pursue careers in STEM or assisting businesses seeking innovative, tech-savvy ideas, speakers specializing in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are in high demand.
Despite this popularity and significant societal presence, women currently hold only 24% of STEM roles (as of 2021). Consequently, influential women in STEM who advocate for greater diversity in the field are becoming increasingly essential. Our female STEM speakers are doing an outstanding job of boosting female representation in these areas.
At Great British Speakers, we collaborate with the UK’s leading STEM experts, including female engineer Ozak Ozu, influencer and tech creator Maddie Moate, wildlife conservationist Liz Bonnin, infectious diseases doctor Chris Van Tulleken, and serial tech entrepreneur Michael Anderson.
We also offer notable figures such as Countdown’s Rachel Riley, Dr Anne-Marie Imafidon, and TV’s favourite math teacher, Bobby Seagull, for any live or virtual STEM event.
