COVID-19 Update: From September 2021 we will return to offering in-person visits from our school speakers. This position will be regularly reviewed as we monitor the latest data. Many of our school speakers are happy to make in-person visits. However, we hope you understand that, in the current circumstances, some may not be. Where we can’t find somebody local to visit in-person we will try to find someone who can visit remotely.

Please state on the form whether you are seeking an in-person or a virtual visit in the ‘Further details’ box.

If you would like to arrange a visit from a humanist school speaker, please complete the below form.

We have free, trained, and experienced volunteers across England, Wales, and Northern Ireland that can visit schools remotely to talk about humanism.

Using their life experience and knowledge, our School Speakers can bring a personal dimension to young people’s study of humanism that goes ‘beyond the textbook’. They offer a range of services and will fit around your needs and requirements.

Find our more about how a school speaker can help you by visiting Understanding Humanism.

Fill in the form below to request a visit from a Humanists UK school speaker.

We aim to respond to requests for humanist school speakers within 10 working days.

Expenses: We are a charity and our school speakers are volunteers who are happy to offer their time and expertise for free. We very much hope that schools will be able to cover any travel expenses incurred by our volunteers or make a contribution towards these expenses if these are considerable because of the distances involved. We hope you will understand that our speakers may have to turn down a request if a school is unable to cover or contribute to expenses where these are considerable.

Humanists UK has been awarded the OCN London Quality Mark, certifying the high quality of our training.
