  • "Luke is a bright, enthusiastic and compelling young man, who has spoken in public on numerous occasions on behalf of the Young Ambassadors and Sport Wales.​ Getting involved in sport and volunteering turned Luke’s life around, and he has worked hard to become a well-respected inspirational and influential speaker and volunteer. He works with young people to inspire and motivate them to have ambition and make the most out of their lives. ​ Luke speaks in a relaxed, eloquent and focused way that inspired the audience – and with some humour thrown in. He speaks in a way that changes people’s mindsets, is inspirational and is able to connect with the audience in a way that is a rare skill. His previous sessions are always very positively evaluated and receives great feedback from delegates. I would highly recommend Luke as a speaker at any event as he will be a significant leader in the future."

  • "Luke has spoken at a number of Sports Leaders UK events ranging from the Senned to the House of Lords and never fails to engage and impress an audience. Luke’s ability to communicate his own journey from a disengaged secondary school student to an influential young leader is truly inspirational and he delivers this message in a way that shows this is an attainable reality for many rather than just an elite few. Luke’s personable style makes the unachievable achievable and encourages his audience to find success in the choices they make."

  • "Luke opened the annual Welsh Public Health conference in November 2016. This is a significant conference that takes place over two days with 500 people and included international experts from the United States and Scotland and a keynote address by the Minister for Health and Social Services. Luke was superb in launching the conference, presenting the views of Young Ambassadors and a video presentation that captured him and colleagues going out and about interviewing people in Wales about health and wellbeing. In a 30 minute opening to the conference, Luke spoke in a relaxed, eloquent and focused way that inspired the audience – and with some humour thrown in. His session was very positively evaluated with great feedback from delegates. I would highly recommend Luke as a speaker in any forum – he is currently a Young Ambassador leader and will be a significant leader in the future. He speaks in a way that changes people’s mindsets, is inspirational and is able to connect with the audience in a way that is a rare skill."

  • "Luke hosted the NSPCC Child Protection in Sport Unit’s 15 year anniversary conference at Wembley Stadium in 2016. The event was focused on involving young people. Luke confidently chaired the day for 200 delegates with myself. This year we invited Luke to join a key panel discussion on safeguarding in sport at the NSPCC’s annual ‘How Safe are our Children’ conference. This involved several preparation sessions with panellists for a complex session with media in attendance and delivery to an audience of around 400 people, most of whom have little knowledge of safeguarding in and through sport. Luke’s contribution was delivered with confidence, sensitivity and passion. It provided an optimistic outlook for the future if we involve and empower young people in sport to help with solutions to the many challenges which they face today’."

  • 'It was a pleasure to have Luke speak at our Leadership Weekend in November and his talk really set the tone for the rest of the event. His energy and enthusiasm is infectious and he was able to build an instant rapport with the group and keep them engaged throughout. Luke's story resonated with so many of our aspiring young leaders and is a fantastic example of overcoming adversity in order to achieve your goals.'
