Talks
Speaking topics
Every talk is authentic, theologically grounded, practical and hope-filled.
My Story & Transformation
A story of redemption, resilience and hope: from long-term imprisonment to studying theology at the University of Oxford and leading Make Good Foundation, exploring how faith, identity and community become catalysts for lasting change.
Reintegration, Identity & Belonging
How lasting transformation extends beyond personal change into recognition, belonging and participation, and how churches and communities can create environments where people are welcomed, valued and equipped to flourish.
Faith, Justice & Public Theology
How the Christian faith responds to justice, exclusion and restoration, combining biblical teaching with lived experience to consider the Church's role in embodying hope in society today.
Education, Hope & Second Chances
The transformative power of education, opportunity and human dignity, and a hopeful vision of second chances that moves people beyond past labels toward purpose and contribution.
