" I hired Andy to host a charity night to support a group us who were raising money for The national Stroke association. Andy’s natural affinity with anyone in the audience really made the night. Everyone there regardless of age was totally included in the night and had a fantastic time.Through his hosting Andy also helped me increase the amount we had raised and on the night we raised over £2000, mainly thanks to his efforts in the auction. I wholeheartedly recommend Andy for any job as his skills are simply second to none and you are pretty much guaranteed a fantastic and successful night. "
Paul BownessStroke Association Charity night
" Andy was asked to host our Charity Fundraising event, which involved a short welcome to everyone before opening the buffet, a thirty minute interaction with the crowd and hosting our raffle/ auction.Andy more than delivered on the above. He made sure he was one of the first to arrive and spent time getting to know his crowd by chatting to them and selling our raffle tickets for us. Once Andy had sold enough tickets he opened the night for us, making sure he interacted with different people around the room. Andy ensured the opening was hilariously funny so that our guests were looking forward to more after their food. When he came back after the break he was true to form and worked the crowd brilliantly, making sure his jokes were relevant and tailored to the crowd.Andy finished with our charity auction after the raffle and guests were happy to put their hands in their pockets as he made them feel at ease. The night was a huge success, largely due to Andy. "

" Andy recently presented a Colleague Recognition Evening and single-headedly created the most memorable event to date. While he had no existing relationship with any of the team, Andy quickly engaged the large group including several visiting clients. The evening was tailored perfectly and its success remained a Hot Topic among the team for months afterwards.At every event I have attended, Andy has demonstrated that he is a dynamic presenter who instantly captures his audience and envelops each venue with his infectious energy. He is engaging and inspiring, delivering the perfect balance of humour and professionalism to guarantee integrity of the message.I would enthusiastically recommend Andy to present any future events.
