Jim did an outstanding job as MC of our inaugural fundraising dinner. His exceptional professionalism combined with his willingness to share his own personal experience with sensitivity and authenticity ensured that the event significantly exceeded our fundraising target. As well as being superbly organised, he took the extra initiative to interview one of our researchers before the event to deepen his knowledge of the Institute. He kept the formalities on track all night whilst entertaining and inspiring our audience. I wouldn't hesitate to wholeheartedly recommend Jim.
