About Suzanne

I’m a creative consultant, supporting disability diversity where it intersects with arts and culture, climate sustainability and cancer patient advocacy. As a disabled, working-class woman, I prove that lived experience is a powerful tool for systemic change. I’ve held senior management and leadership roles for the majority of my career, enabling me to become a ‘thought leader’ and a confident public speaker. I have skills in governance, and both strategic and business development. I can create comms messages with impact, and I can advocate for disabled people at the highest level with policy makers and politicians. I was publicly recognised with an MBE for my services to music, arts and disabled people in the Queen’s Honours in June 2013 and I have won other awards since.

Good to Know

Client Requirements
The building needs to be wheelchair accessible as I'm a disabled person. I need level access to the building and to rooms. I need a wheelchair accessible bathroom. I need a projector screen, whiteboard, flip chart & pens, depending on size of audience head mic, a table at wheelchair accessible height so that I can lean on it.
Additional Notes
I have 30+ years experience in public speaking - as keynote speaker, panel member or chair / moderator. Most of my work is public speaking related and I can speak on themes as diverse as disabled and / or women's leadership, from my lived experience as a disabled cancer patient, why there's no climate justice without disability justice, and my work as ex-CEO Founder of Attitude is Everything - which improves disabled people's access to music and live events. I have uploaded my keynote speech that I gave at Cheltenham Jazz Festivals Access to Music conference in May 2025.
