Kind Words

“I had the pleasure of having David share his experiences and outlook on life with my leadership team. David has a poignant and entertaining way to tell his stories, making them relevant for everyone regardless of background and professional experience. The philosophy of approaching day to day challenges with determination and “positiverosity” resonated well with the team, and left them inspired and encouraged to continue on the journey I started with them”.

‘David’s informative and energetic speech left our colleagues inspired to lead not only more positive lives, but healthier ones too, both in the workplace and personally. David’s fascinating story motivated us all to look at what we can do to help others and has already inspired our team to begin a walking challenge for charity’

“David and Jo of Wild Fox Events have provided Inverleith LLP with two amazing Company off-sites so far. Our teams have enjoyed their wonderful hospitality in the beautiful Loch Tay surroundings. Being outside the office, with all its demands, allowed the teams to properly communicate on a hike; really get to know one another in team event; strengthen team bonds on a planning exercise and challenge themselves all within a fun and safe environment. The activities our groups undertook ranged from adventurous hikes up the Loch Tay munros to delicious black tie dinners and board room discussions. David and Jo are fantastic hosts, understanding all the needs of the groups. Despite a busy few days, the groups felt recharged and revitalised when they went back.”
