Siobhán Fitzpatrick is a British Paralympic athlete and celebrated member of the Great Britain women’s national wheelchair basketball team, known for her role in reshaping perceptions of disability in sport and beyond.
Initially discovering wheelchair basketball at a “playground to podium” event in 2010, Siobhán quickly rose through the ranks, showcasing her talent in national and international arenas, from the School Games to the Junior Championships. She has since become a regular in the GB lineup, contributing to historic achievements, including a silver medal at the 2018 World Championships and a ground-breaking championship title with Loughborough Lightning in the British Wheelchair Basketball Women’s Premier League.
Beyond the court, Siobhán’s impact spans far beyond sports. Having been an Ambassador for the 2022 Commonwealth Games, she is a sought-after speaker who addresses audiences on topics ranging from resilience and mental health to inclusivity and teamwork. Her journey, including the setback of not being selected for the 2016 Paralympics, has helped her redefine what it means to face challenges with resilience. Siobhán uses her platform to address the need for representation and the importance of visibility for people with disabilities, challenging stereotypes in both the sports and business worlds.
In addition to her sporting achievements, Siobhán holds a degree in Business Management from the University of Worcester, adding further depth to her understanding of teamwork and leadership. Her experience in public speaking includes hosting charity events, presenting in front of government officials and royalty, and delivering regular talks to schools and universities. Siobhán’s message is one of empowerment, offering a compelling perspective on overcoming adversity and fostering inclusivity across all areas of life.
Book Siobhán Fitzpatrick to inspire your team with her powerful story of resilience and determination. As a Paralympic athlete, she challenges perceptions of disability and showcases the transferable skills of sport to the corporate world.

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.
