What's Frank been doing since retiring?

Frank is well and working all over Europe he has recently been invited on a number of corporate day golf events and more and more events as a after dinner speaker. His presentation is used by companies as a motivational speaker and we can organise a powerpoint presentation although some clients are happy seeing footage of Mike Tyson v Frank Bruno!

Is he a motivational inspirational speaker?     Yes.

Is he a motivational keynote speaker?     Perhaps not.

He is used by many clients for charity fundraising events as the public love him and children recognise him. One recent charity fund raising idea was to auction his time in a Gym with a couple of charity supporters. His autograph is always in high demand and he often attends autograph shows with Geoff Hurst, Peter Shilton, and Henry Cooper and has done a series of events with Ricky Hatton. He enjoys football and is just getting into Rugby Union as his son now is playing. He is a legend of the sport and apart from Boxing the World loves the character of Frank Bruno. Our company can also handle all paid autograph requests.
