Awarded an MBE and OBE and made a Dame for her glittering athletics career, Denise is an inspiring keynote speaker on both resilience and motivation.

As an athlete, broadcaster, author and mother her life has been one of constant adaptation, and her must-hear keynote speeches have transformed so many lives.

She found sporting glory at the Olympics, Commonwealth Games, European Championships and World Championships and is widely recognised as one of Britain’s greatest multi-eventers.
