Testimonials

The Barclays logo in black. Barclays logo is in all capitals and with serif typeface.

Tate is a truly inspirational young man. Not only does he use his experience of transition to spread awareness, he is a fabulous speaker, engaging the audience and driving real change. It’s been a pleasure to both speak on panels with him, and also to have him as a panellist at my own events.
