What People Say

At Aspire Action, we believe in action, and the people we work with say it best. Here’s what participants, event organisers, and community partners have shared about the impact of our work. 

Feedback from Talks &  Workshops

“The workshop was very informative and engaging. It gave me a clearer understanding of how volunteering can help me develop skills and gain experience. I now feel more confident about where to look for volunteer roles and how to present myself when applying. I’m motivated to take the next step toward finding something that fits my interests. Thank you for your guidance — this session really helped me.”

Giedre, Volunteering to Value Workshop 

“The workshop on ‘How to Take Ownership of Your Life and Achieve Success’, delivered by Pierre, was highly successful! Students actively participated and acquired valuable skills during the session. Pierre's story of never giving up on pursuing his dream, even after being rejected, is an excellent motivation for our learners and an important life lesson.

“Pierre is an impassioned speaker who talks from his rich lived experience, which he translates into supportive stories that inspire people who have recently arrived to make a life in the UK. Pierre can encourage people with his words, but he also backs up his message with practical, real-life examples of aspirational moves that he and the people he has supported have made.

Pierre’s personable approach means he talks to people as individuals and understands and appreciates the many walks of life people come from. His public speaking engagements are relatable, especially for those looking for encouragement to make positive life changes.

It is rare to meet a public speaker who speaks so well from the head and heart; it is a privilege to know and hear him speak.

“Ever since I first met Pierre, his passion to help others has shone through and impressed me tremendously. His story is clear and powerful, having struggled personally and professionally upon moving to the UK from his native Cameroon, and he draws upon it powerfully in his pursuit of opportunities for those like him experiencing similar challenges today.

It’s not always easy to be vulnerable and reveal your struggles, but Pierre does so regularly and willingly for the sake of others. I believe this plays a significant role in his ability to relate to those who attend his courses and talks. It is a big part of why they have been such a success.

Jamie Kesten, Deputy Director, Thames Ward Community Project”

"Pierre Epoh-Moudio delivered an incredibly powerful and inspiring talk to my class of long-term unemployed adults facing multiple challenges. His life story resonated deeply with the group, reinforcing key messages around resilience, personal growth, and the value of setting clear goals. His honest and passionate delivery captivated every student, sparking meaningful discussions and genuine motivation. With over 35 years in this field, I can confidently say Pierre is one of the most impactful speakers I’ve encountered. If you haven’t heard him speak, you’re missing out." 

Mick Griffin, Teacher at Barking and Dagenham college 

“I used to be an accountant in my home country, but when I came to London, the first job I got was as a cleaner. I hated it and felt stuck. Through Pierre's guidance, I gained the confidence to improve my English, develop a passion for what I was doing, and use it as a stepping stone to achieve my goals.

I also learned to widen my network and refocus on my long-term aspirations. Today, I’m on track to work in my field again. He transformed my journey.”
