If you’re looking for a speaker or consultant who is in regular demand both internationally and at local events, then please get in touch! I specialise in topics around Equality, Diversity and Inclusion, with particular experience in Disability, Neurodivergence and LGBTQI+ issues. I have really enjoyed developing a ‘portfolio’ career alongside my clinical work, I am delighted to now be invited to speak at a range of events around the world, and would always love to do more!
I have the privilege of being a 2x TEDx speaker; TEDxNHS at the BFI Imax in London, and TEDxExeter (which has now had over 76,000 views on the main TED website).
I am often invited as a ‘motivational speaker’ and I specialise in tackling the ‘tricky’ or ‘uncomfortable’ topics. As a GP with a special interest in Sexual Health and Wellbeing, I’m very accustomed to addressing subjects people find hard; I’m comfortable speaking about bereavement, disability, neurodivergence, sexuality, and diversity as something to be celebrated, not ‘normalised’. I take pride in tackling topics people find ‘difficult’ with humour and honesty, and I encourage people to ask questions that they normally would shy away from in a public forum. I am determined that by encouraging open conversation, we can, in the words of Scope, help to #EndTheAwkward – and I always end talks with my now notorious ‘Judgement Free Zones’ – I will go out of my way to enable people to as questions anonymously, safe in the knowledge that I won’t judge, but I will supportively educate and inform.
I have spoken to audiences of 700,000 (yeah, the People’s Vote March in October 2018 pulled *quite* the crowd), I’ve repeatedly popped up live on BBC Breakfast and Sky News, but I am also comfortable with more intimate groups of 10 or less. I have led a selection of EDI strategy and education workshops, and am very happy to facilitate discussion and encourage people to engage. I am as happy after dinner as I am first thing in the the morning (if there’s coffee, even better), and I have already covered Singapore, to Amsterdam to Scotland and Wales, so travel is not a problem!
I look forward to hearing from you – get in touch on hello@hannahbarhambrown.com
Fees available on request.

Dear Dr Hannah,
I hope all is well with you, my name is Lydia Warren and I work for Barts Health NHS Trust. I am the Inclusion Project Officer for the Workforce Disability Equality Standard and the Co-Chair BartsAbility our Disability network.
I think we met at the Disability Summit back in 2019 such a long time ago now. My colleagues and I liked your story that you had shared on that day. We wanted to reach out to you as we are holding an event on 3rd December 2020 International Day of Persons with disabilities via Ms Teams and we wanted to ask if you were available to join us and to share your story to our Staff members as our guest speaker.
How much would you charge for about 20min presentation including Q&A.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
