Toni Kent

Toni is an engaging, high energy speaker who translates the conversation around social mobility into what really matters for young people in the UK today. Drawing on decades of lived experience during which she went from council estate to corporate and tried her hand at comedy, Toni speaks honestly about what it’s like to build a career when money is tight, opportunities feel uneven, and the system doesn’t always feel built for you. Her mix of personal story, humour, and strategic insight helps young people feel seen. Toni will leave your students with a clearer understanding and greater optimism on how to develop the confidence and skills for a fairer, more accessible future.
