See what people had to say about Graham Bell, when he appeared at their corporate events:
"Graham took part in the Olympics Event at ICC Birmingham presented by Lloyds Bank. Ski Sunday presenter Graham impressed his hosts for the event, sharing his expertise and knowledge from 5 appearances at Olympic Games with his usual humour, charisma and personality. Graham was a total pro. So many clients and our head of marketing said what a difference it made to have a professional doing the job. He had such a light touch, was knowledgeable and effortlessly cool. He also has a few admirers! We've been told it was the best Olympic event, in fact the best event ever." - Lloyds Bank
"It was lovely to meet Graham and his wife Sarah at our PGMOL Conference at the Radisson Blu Edwardian Hotel, Heathrow on 28th June. The objective of the PGMOL is to enhance the game through developing and delivering excellence in refereeing. The organisation has the responsibility for the recruitment, appointment, training & development of referees and assistant referees operating in the Premier and Football Leagues. As a service provider, the PGMOL’s key resource is the quality of its match officials which is crucial to the success of the organisation. Our conference theme was ‘thinking on your feet’ and there was a lot of synergy in Graham’s profession as Olympic Skier and the role of referees and assistant referees operating at the very highest level of the game. Graham pitched his presentation to perfection linking the skills as a skier to the skills of a match official, particularly in areas of mental toughness, psychology and decision making. For the first time in our Conference history, Graham also hosted the whole day, linking all the training sessions that were delivered throughout the day and summarising the key learning points. We found Graham to be very friendly, approachable and thoroughly professional and have no hesitation in recommending Graham. We really enjoyed working with him." - Ray, Training and Development Manager, PGMOL

"Just to let you know Graham went down really well." - Steve, President AVLP
"The event went very well and we have some great feedback on Graham. I thought he did a great job, arrived nice and early to check the tech side and had a good chat to many of our members before dinner. His presentation was interesting, fun and engaging …. Didn’t think he would get such good audience participation! After dinner he was happy to chat away to the members again and have his photo taken, we also roped him into the raffle …. Which he was more than happy to do. So thank you and please pass on our thanks to Graham as well!" - Gemma, Cayton Village Caravan Park
"It was a really good event! Many thanks for your help with organising a speaker, it took a lot of stress out of the event and Graham was well received on the night. Please pass on my thanks to Graham, not just for presenting for also being so personable and accommodating on the evening." - Nick, South Oxfordshire and Vale of White Horse District Councils
"The event went very smoothly, thanks for asking. Graham was very well received, both on stage and round the tables, with people coming up and asking for photos all evening. On stage, he presented a lot about what it was like being a British skier and BBC broadcaster, which was well timed and interested a lot of people. Overall very positive feedback, thanks for your help." - Tim, Generation 4 Change
