Matt Ellison

Matt Ellison is a highly sought-after, entertaining, and thought-provoking transgender speaker. His life experience as a trans man has fascinated and inspired audiences of all kinds in both private and public sectors in the U.K. and internationally. His insights on change, as someone who has made such a huge and fundamental change himself, apply to everyone in all areas of professional and personal life.

Organizations that have invited Ellison to speak include Microsoft, eBay, Mars, Toyota, Lacoste, Disney, KFC, NHS, Lloyds of London, City of London Corporation, Fidelity International, HM Courts and Tribunals, and many more.

Ellison has been consulted and interviewed on many occasions. He was recently seen on TV in the high-profile Channel 4 documentary "Me and My Penis," which broke many taboos, covering sex, psychology, and men’s mental health issues.

Tailored towards the audience, Ellison has something to offer all audiences, including healthcare professionals, businesses, educational institutions, emergency services, political and religious groups, plus more. Depending upon requirements, he can delve deep into the mind of what it feels like to be transgender with a story full of highs, lows, and humour. He can educate the audience on topics such as medical interventions, social aspects, safe practices for service providers and employers, as well as the legal implications of the Gender Recognition Act.

With an increasing number of trans folk having the courage to transition, yet with so many still facing discrimination and ignorance, transgender issues and diversity and inclusion are currently more relevant than ever.
