We have had many speakers in school and you were by far the best! An incredibly powerful story and you have had such a positive impact on our students (and staff) thank you so much

One of the best external speakers I've seen as long as I've been teaching. Brave, frank, honest, relatable and powerful. If you keep doing what you are doing it will really help keep potentially vulnerable students on the right track. Thanks so much!

I watched Adam present The Long Game to year 10 and year 8. He held both groups in the palm of his hand for the whole hour. They were so engaged, as were the staff. It is well worth the investment. We’ve covered the bones of the issue in Personal Development lessons but this presentation delivered so much more than I could in the classroom. It was moving, thought provoking, informative and engaging. Thanks Adam, you moved us all with your story and clear message of how students can help themselves and each other if they fall victim to this. I wouldn’t change a thing!

I have been teaching almost 20 years and a pastoral leader for 8 so I have supported students with some very difficult circumstances. In all my teaching I have not seen a session which has been so memorable and moving. We talk about county lines in theory but nothing hits home like a session with such a brave and personal message. I cannot recommend the session highly enough. You are absolutely the right person for young people to listen to. It will definitely make a difference to young people who see it and to the staff working in schools. Thank you so much. No improvements needed.
