David annually hosts the Personal Finance Society/Chartered Insurance Institute graduation events, a role he has held for fifteen years. Earlier this year (2024), he hosted an “in conversation” event with Dame Stella Rimington, the former Director General of MI5 and now an author, at Annabel’s Club. Recently, he has returned to his roots as an actor, engaging with directors, writers, and actors in groups to workshop plays and showcase events. His specialities include travel and property, and he excels at using an autocue. David is a great presenter who engages audiences with a comedic twist.
