THE devastated uncle of a teenager killed by a single punch is the motivation speaker for the latest St Richard's Hospice event.
Connor Saunders died in 2012 after he was struck after getting into an argument with a group of teenagers.
Since then Jamie Denyer has set out to educate against violence, while helping others make better lives for themselves.
The speaker has given motivational talks in prisons, schools and businesses, with a recording of his TEDx talk viewed more than 55,000 times online.
Mr Denyer's is the guest speaker at St Richard’s Hospice breakfast event being held at Sixways Stadium in Hindlip, near Worcester, on Friday, June 29.
The event begins at 7.45am for an 8am start. Tickets are priced at £25 per person and includes a full English breakfast.

Ria Simons, fundraiser at St Richard’s Hospice, said: “We are very excited to welcome Jamie along to our breakfast event – it’s sure to be an inspiring morning you won’t want to miss.
“Money raised by this event will help support us to continue providing our free hospice care to patients and their families. We hope to see you there.
"I'm very excited to be speaking at this event to help raise funds for St Richard’s Hospice. Giving back and helping is a massive part of my moral compass.
"This will be a talk that attendees would never have experienced before."
