Speaking Testimonials

” Members of Walton Business Group come from a wide variety of professions including SMEs, banks, accountants, law firms and high-street names. WBG is in its 5th year and our guests expect very good speakers. We were delighted to invite Hugh Williams-Preece, following his recent success with 50in50. His talk was inspiring, uplifting and with elements of humour. He doesn’t take himself too seriously and he shared valuable and practical lessons for everyone in the room. Feedback has been excellent, which makes the event organising team feel good too – we’d certainly recommend him”.

Sarah-Jane Shellard, Director, Walton Business Group, July 2010

“To run one marathon is hard enough; recovery takes a week or two. To run two on consecutive days is asking a lot. To run 50 in 50 could be described as sheer madness but Hugh knew what he was doing, realized the enormity of his task, and so persuaded the whole prep school (aged 7-13), in his charming & self-effacing way, that he and we could do almost anything if we wanted. His talk covered everything involved from inception to aftermath and left us with a feeling that we too could be superhuman if we only believed.”

“I hear many speakers in the course of my professional work and Hugh’s name was new to me. What a treat! His speech was very impressive – it was clear, helpful, informative and entertaining. His sense of humour and his descriptions of the challenges, setbacks and triumphs en route made it all the more inspiring. He’s an ordinary man with an extraordinary focus to succeed – and the ability to pass his infectious enthusiasm on to others. I’d happily recommend him!”

Anne Williams, Director, Next Level Information, July 2010
