Speaking

Sport

As well as working within Social Media and Sport, I also enjoy the challenge of speaking about my experiences and ideas at events. I’ve spoken at and hosted several events over the past couple of years and am looking to do more in 2012. If you would like to book me for your event then please contact me at daniel@theuksportsnetwork.com, call on 07903 168360 or tweet me at @danielmclaren.
