Rachel Riley is firm favourite on the much-loved Channel 4 show Countdown and has kept loyal audiences glued to their screens for years.

Her bright talent quickly shone elsewhere – on BBC1’s Strictly Come Dancing, Channel 5’s Gadget Show and Friday Night Football on Sky Sports, making Rachel an accomplished host on a wide range of topics in front of big audiences.

It’s almost hard to keep up with Rachel’s TV appearances. She is so in demand you’ll also know her from Celebrity Mastermind, The Weakest Link, Pointless Celebrities, Sunday Brunch and 8 out of 10 Cats.

She’s a passionate public speaker on important issues and has spoken so effectively about holocaust education and antisemitism she was awarded an MBE.

Rachel also got involved with a study highlighting the extent of online bullying and hate which revealed how little was done to protect women from abusive messages.

To further demonstrate Rachel’s incredible diverse range of interests she uses her love of football to help equip young people with the skills they need to lead healthier lives through Grassroots Soccer, a global adolescent health organisation.

The mathematics graduate also has a rare ability to unpick complex issues and present them in a way that makes them compelling and relatable – demonstrated in her first book, At Sixes and Sevens: How to Understand Numbers and Make Maths Easy.

Whether as an after dinner speaker, keynote speaker or event host — there are few celebrities better equipped to ensure your event is a success than Rachel Riley.
