Colin Jackson

Former World Record-Breaking Hurdler, Olympic Gold Medallist, and Speaker

In conjunction with Celebrity PR Limited, London we present Colin Jackson, a former gold medalist at the European Championships hosted in Munich in 2002. The following year saw him bring down the curtains on his trophy-laden career following participation in the 2003 World Indoor Championships. He would then go into coaching, with big names such as Rhys Williams, Timothy Benjamin, and Mark Foster benefitting from his tutelage. But that isn't all, as big media organizations, including the BBC, also sought his services. For instance, he co-hosted Born to Win and covered the 2012 London Olympics for BBC.

As well as being a contestant on programs like Dancing on Ice, Strictly Come Dancing, and Celebrity Masterchef, Colin has appeared on The Making of Me and has co-hosted Sunday Life. As a testament to his impact on the sport, he was appointed CBE, OBE, and MBE.

Does Colin give back to the community? Yes, he is a serious philanthropist too. He created Go Dan Run, a fundraising platform that focuses on helping people with bowel and prostate cancer in the United Kingdom.

Having excelled in sports and media, Colin shifted his focus to keynote speaking, where his star shines even brighter. He is an irresistible choice when looking for a host or after-dinner speaker who can inspire men and women alike.
