Testimonials

In the time I have known Steve Hill, he has undertaken many challenges that few would even consider, never mind take part in. Following on from this, he truly inspires everyone he meets, especially his year 6 students in his class each year. Steve became one of our Gold Award Presenters, undertaking this role at St James’s Palace last year, to share his inspirational challenges to recipients of The Duke of Edinburgh’s Gold Award. The feedback we received from this was a true reflection on what an inspiration Steve is and his ‘can do’ attitude. Having also presented at Holyrood House Palace in Edinburgh in the Summer, we have again asked him to present back at St James’s Palace next week having completed his latest challenge of climbing Mount Toubkal. I would have no hesitation in recommending Steve to present, inspire and motivate you with his remarkable and humble story of his challenges.

The Duke of Edinburgh Awards, Pamela Sleigh

We have used Steve as an inspiration speaker for 2 occasions in the last 12 months, including the Oldham Health Champions and the Oldham Sports Awards. Each event had a completely different audience, but on each, he had the audience completely gripped throughout. The stories that Steve has to offer are phenomenal and leave the audience wowed at his accomplishments. He is a true inspiration and thrives on motivating others. I would highly recommend Steve to anyone who is looking for an inspiration speaker.

Oldham Sports Development, Anna Shiels

Steve is indeed a great inspiration to all children and people that he meets. He is our community hero but also the town’s hero, he has gone above and beyond to help those in need, especially children not only in our town but in other countries too. A truly inspirational man!
