Katie Piper

Katie Piper is a well-known inspirational speaker, TV host, charity advocate, and international best-selling author. Many people know her incredible story, which she shared in a film for the Cutting Edge series on Channel 4 called ‘Katie: My Beautiful Face’. This film was watched by over 3.5 million viewers and was nominated for Best Single Documentary at the BAFTA Television Awards in 2010.

Over a decade ago, Katie founded 'The Katie Piper Foundation' to help individuals with scars and burns reconnect with their communities. The foundation aims to create a world where a person's scars do not limit their well-being or social inclusion. Katie has garnered support from many famous celebrities, including Simon Cowell, who is a patron and actively supports the cause. In the summer of 2019, the charity achieved its goal of opening a rehabilitation center in the UK to offer other burn survivors the innovative treatments that Katie received in France.

In addition to her charity work, Katie frequently appears on television and radio across multiple networks. She is a popular panelist on ITV1’s Loose Women and a regular host on the Early Morning Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2 and the Michael Ball Show on Sunday mornings. Katie's other TV credits include 'The Death of Aimee Spencer’ for the Crime and Punishment series on ITV1, Channel 4’s ‘Famous and Fighting Crime,’ where she trained with the police force, 'Never Seen a Doctor' for C4, where she helped people overcome their fears around medical procedures, and guided them on their journey back to good health, and 'Katie Piper’s Face to Face,' where she invited women with facial conditions to London’s Harvey Nichols for makeovers with makeup artists who shared the same condition. She has also hosted several series of C4's 'Body Shockers,' where she met people planning major body modifications and introduced them to someone who had already undergone the modification and regretted it.

Katie is a sought-after public speaker and has shared her inspiring story with large audiences at events like WE Day, Women’s Health Live, and the Cosmopolitan Self Made Summit. She has also spoken at events for major clients like Google, Facebook, and The NHS. Her keynote speeches often cover themes such as motivation, inspiration, overcoming adversity, and maintaining a positive mindset.

As a best-selling author, Katie has written several books, including two autobiographies, ‘Beautiful’ and ‘Beautiful Ever After’, an affirmations book called ‘Start Your Day With Katie’, self-help books ‘Things Get Better’ and ‘Confidence: The Secret’, and a book she wrote with her Mom called ‘Things I’d Tell My Child’.
