2026 awareness dates
Themed days and weeks to book Andrew for
The themed days/weeks which occur during the year are a time to broaden our horizons, learn new things and develop our understanding of each other.
By shining a spotlight on a particular challenge and/or group of people for a single day or week (and in some cases month) we raise awareness, start meaningful conversations and initiate action.
I have listed below the key dates in 2026, for which organisations book me as a speaker.
