Footdown’s speakers form a vital part of our leadership mentoring offering and, as the small selection below indicates, bring an enormous range of knowledge, skills and experience to our monthly Footdown Fifteen meetings.  A number of the featured speakers have become a regular highlight of the Footdown programme and return each year to work with the different Footdown Fifteen groups.

We are always on the look out for exciting new speakers to bring to our groups so if you think you have something special to offer our leader community, please contact Debbie.
