Transform athlete wellbeing programs with Finley Tapp, speaker and fitness entrepreneur. Finley works with sports organisations to address athlete mental health, career transitions, and sustainable fitness approaches, leveraging his Love Island win and professional football background.


Finley Tapp is an English television personality, fitness entrepreneur, and former professional footballer. He gained widespread recognition after winning the sixth series of Love Island, which propelled him into the public eye.
Finley’s journey in sports began at a young age, playing professionally for Milton Keynes Dons before transitioning to semi-professional football with Oxford City and later Banbury United.
Having faced the challenges of early retirement from football, Finley understands the complexities young athletes encounter when their sporting careers unexpectedly stop. This experience has shaped his advocacy for athlete mental health, as he aims to support others navigating similar transitions. His personal story resonates with many, making him a relatable figure for those seeking guidance in fitness and mental resilience.
Finley is a qualified personal trainer and has cultivated a significant online presence, particularly on TikTok, where he shares fitness tips and motivational content. His approach focuses on making training enjoyable and sustainable, encouraging individuals to prioritise progress over perfection.
Beyond fitness, he has interests in fashion, travel, and fragrance, and is currently exploring sobriety.
With a growing platform of over one million followers, Finley collaborates with various brands, including Nivea and Gillette, to promote wellness and self-care. He is opening his own gym and has plans for future ventures.
Finley’s insights into the mental health challenges young athletes face and his commitment to fostering a supportive community make him a valuable voice in the conversation around sports and personal development.

To book Finley Tapp, email finley.tapp@getapeptalk.com or call PepTalk on +44 20 3835 2929 (UK) or +1 737 888 5112 (US), and one of our speaker agents will contact you within hours to confirm Finley's availability and speaking fee. If you can, please include your budget upfront – it helps us fast-track your request. It’s also helpful to know the date, format (virtual or in-person), location, and about your audience.
No. PepTalk adds no booking fee, so you pay the speaker's fee and nothing beyond it. The service, from shortlist through to contracts and event-day logistics, is included. For repeat or multi-event bookings, PepTalk can agree preferential rates with your procurement team.
Share your event date, audience, format, objectives and budget, and PepTalk sends a hand-picked shortlist within 24 hours. Each suggestion comes with a profile, a fee and a recommendation on the strongest fit. Once you choose, PepTalk handles contracts, travel and logistics through to event day.
The typical fee range is the speaker's standard in-person fee in their home market, shown in their local currency. It moves with format, location, date and session length: virtual sessions and shorter slots usually cost less, while international travel and peak dates cost more. Send your brief to PepTalk and the team will confirm the exact fee in your currency.
Not all of them, and it makes no difference to your booking. PepTalk's network of 15,000+ speakers covers talent the team works with directly alongside speakers represented by agents and agencies worldwide. PepTalk approaches the speaker, negotiates the fee and handles contracting either way.
Three to six months ahead is comfortable for most events, and 12 months is better for large conferences, peak-season dates or one specific in-demand speaker. Shorter timelines are workable, and PepTalk regularly fills last-minute and replacement bookings within days. Availability is the constraint, so get in touch as soon as you have a date.
