I had the absolute please of sitting down and engaging with the local community ant the very busy Jessica Toale for Bournemouth West discussing crime and anti social behavior and what needs to be done to improve our neighborhoods .
We all know how bad this issue is, but we all have a different perception of what is most important and the only way you can do that is to sit with the community and hear what they have to say. I was truly humbled by the amount of questions asked to me along with my thought son how and what we can and should do to start to make a positive change.
A big thank you to everyone who attended my a mentoring mindset evening.
My intention was to have a conversation with and talk about the great benefits of mentoring in society, working in alternative education mentoring has shown me more and more power of good mentorship.
if you attended thank you, if you were one of the guest speakers a huge thank you also Running Free I appreciate the warm hospitality.
WE WILL BE BACK!
Keep your eye out for my next event, details coming soon.
Two decades ago, I embarked on a journey in the security industry, providing training that extended far beyond the technical aspects. In every role since then—whether in business, boxing, life coaching, or alternative education—I've embraced the mantle of mentorship. With an unwavering "yes you can" attitude, I've witnessed firsthand how our mindset shapes our path to success, tailored to each individual's aspirations,
those who know me know how true a statement this is.
Now, I'm eager to extend this conversation to those who recognize the transformative power of mentoring or whom are intrigued and want to know more, whether you’re seeking personal growth, looking to support your children’s journey, or aiming to enhance your business acumen, mentoring offers individual benefits.
I have invited you to join me in exploring the profound impact of a mentoring mindset. let’s delve into how guidance, encouragement and belief in oneself can result in remarkable achievements.
My commitment to community betterment fuels my passion for this dialogue.
On April 24th, I Invite you to gather with me and three quest speakers each with their own inspiring stories of how mentoring has shaped their lives.
Together lets pave the way for growth, empowerment and lasting change. Join the conversation and lets make a difference together.
The evening will be held at Running free in Ashley cross.
I extend my gratitude to the Bournemouth Echo for spotlighting my insights on addressing the pressing and rapidly escalating issue of knife crime within our community. Recently, during an event I hosted, I was approached to share strategies for tackling this pervasive challenge. With three decades immersed in the security industry, I've encountered, witnessed, and even faced threats involving knives.
As my professional journey has transitioned from security training to boxing coaching and now into the realm of alternative education mentoring, I've come to appreciate the profound impact of mentorship and positive role modeling. Now, more than ever, our youth require strong, supportive figures in their lives.
My career affords me daily interactions with individuals in need of guidance and mentorship. I advocate for proactive approaches over reactive measures. While punishment and legal repercussions are essential deterrents, true change emerges from proactive intervention. It's crucial to recognise that not every young person carrying a weapon is inherently bad. While it's unacceptable to possess blades or offensive weapons, we must implement comprehensive support systems and education initiatives tailored to resonate with them.
I've witnessed firsthand the transformative power of investing time and effort into individuals who may have been dismissed or overlooked. While I don't purport to single-handedly eradicate all crime or revolutionise society, I firmly believe in my capacity to effect positive change. If my efforts can alter the mindset of even one person for the better, it could mean saving a life.
Once again, my appreciation to the Bournemouth Echo for amplifying this message. Perhaps, just perhaps, someone will find solace or inspiration within these words.
Delighted to share that I had the honor of delivering a speech at the esteemed Caladonian Club on March 20th. Situated in the heart of Belgravia, London, this exclusive private members club provided a distinguished setting for the talk. It was truly an exhilarating experience, and I am deeply grateful for the opportunity.
Engaging with a new crowd in this prestigious venue allowed me to share my utmost passion with fresh minds. It was immensely rewarding to connect with individuals who share a curiosity for the topics close to my heart. That provided insightful conversations. The event provided a platform for enriching dialogue and meaningful connections.
A truly memorable night, almost 100 invite only guests coming along to my *30 years on” evening. The evening was an uplifting talk about mindset, business, entrepreneurship and fun, often thought provoking questions from the audience session.
I invited my very good friend Lola of Prime Coastal Property to join me on stage and talk about her mindset, as such an inspiring young entrepreneur, I find myself always inspired by her passion for business and why she does what she does.
It was an amazing evening, which ran so smoothly, made possible only because of a terrific team and the support of our legend MC Dave Fitzgerald of Lashings, who took care of proceedings through out the night, absolute respect and big thanks to Dave.
The evening was great fun, a room full of wonderful people and I felt such great energy and welcome from everyone as well as amazing music by Roxanne Phillips.
A very sincere thank you to each and everyone that came along as well as the team at Christchurch Harbor Hotel and Personella who worked behind the scenes to make the evening the huge success it was.
Thank you!

This is Marilyn and she is fighting Parkinson’s!
She is truly amazing and so inspiring. Marylin came to me less than a month ago and dur to her Parkinson’s she was experiencing physical and mental changes that she refused to give into and has been has been so determined to fight!
She experiences shaking in the hands, tremors, slowing movement and stiffness as well as increased anxiety which she believes to be the start to her mental health decline with depression.
Together we have agreed that we would use boxing as a toll to help her gain control and fight back.
Marylin in less than a month with regular training is already feeling mentally better and happier gaining more confidence and less anxiety each day.
Her boxing is getting stronger each day … Check out that right hand!!
I am excited and can’t wait to see how much more boxing is going to further support this courageous lady.
Fantastic time attending the premiere of Memories in SOHO, London, a private screening, for those who had a part to play in this fantastic feature film.
Then a beautiful meal afterwards with some of the cast, crew and friends who come along to support the event.
I’m super excited to see the futures of Nightriders and Memories, being on screen is something I’ve dreamt of since I was small so to be doing this and creating these opportunities has been and continues to be such a fantastic experience.
2020 has been quite a year so far,
We have still continued to service our clients, as the world grind to a stop, the requirements and needs for security remained, in many cases alternative provision, the need for front line operatives in public places, supermarkets, banks, surges and a huge increase in the protection of residential homes was high.
As we slowly return back to normality it is fair to say that the majority of events, festivals and mass gatherings are looking to be postpones until 2021.
