A number of guests have remarked on how much they enjoyed David Gower's speech - I thought it was perfectly pitched for our audience. I also appreciate the length of time he spent mingling with our guests after the dinner had finished.

Senior Partner, Allen & Overy

David's presence and willing involvement in all our activities enhanced very considerably the success of the evening. Furthermore, his speech was extremely well received

Head of Marketing, Bedfordshire TEC

David's after lunch speech was both interesting and very witty and held the attention of the whole audience, as evidenced by their laughter and enthusiastic applause. He then went on to MC the presentation of the various awards, which he did very professionally

Event Organiser, Timber Trader of the Year Awards

David was charming and never irritated by all the requests for autographs and photographs and I've heard nothing but compliments about the content of his presentation. The amusing anecdotes from his cricketing days together with snippets from his TV show meant that people with no cricket interest could still relate
