What people say about Peg’s event hosting

With years of experience of design and facilitation, combined with presenting and journalism skills and extensive policy knowledge, Peg is routinely top-rated by both clients and attendees. Feedback is that Peg brings an audience appropriate ease and energy to events, making participants feel fully engaged and part of the event as well as keeping energy up whilst always calm and competent. She is thoroughly professional working with clients to plan the best possible event. She always keeps them to client purpose and feel, schedule and time. She has yet to leave an event without both clients and participants/audience telling her how much they appreciated and rated her. She is repeat booked time and time again.

"We were delighted with the event. We had an idea in mind and you helped us deliver on that brilliantly. The atmosphere was really good. I think people found it refreshing - and not what they expected."
