Katie Piper

Katie Piper is a best-selling international author, inspirational speaker, TV presenter and charity campaigner. Katie made the decision to share her story in a remarkable film for the Cutting Edge strand on Channel 4 called 'Katie: My Beautiful Face' which was watched by over 3.5million viewers and nominated for Best Single Documentary at the BAFTA Television Awards.

Over ten years ago she set up a charity The Katie Piper Foundation to help people with burns and scars to reconnect with their lives and their communities. Simon Cowell supported Katie by becoming the patron and remains actively involved to date. The charity's vision is a world where scars do not limit a person's function, social inclusion or sense of well-being and they achieved their goal to open a rehabilitation centre in the UK to offer other burns survivors the treatments that Katie received in France.  

In addition to her charity commitments, Katie hosts her own ITV1 show ‘The Katie Piper Breakfast Show’ which is in its third series, is a regular panellist on ITV1’s ‘Loose Women’, and is one of the key faces of the W Channel with her hit series ‘Katie Piper’s Jailhouse Mums’. She is also an experienced radio presenter having covered the Early Morning Breakfast Show and the Michael Ball Show on BBC Radio 2.  Her other TV credits include ‘Never Seen a Doctor’ for C4 where she helped people overcome their fears around medical procedures and guided them on their journey back to good health, ‘The Death of Aimee Spencer’ for the Crime and Punishment strand on ITV1, C4’s ‘Famous and Fighting Crime’ where she trained as a special in the police force and ‘Katie Piper’s Face to Face’ where she invited women with facial conditions to London’s Harvey Nichols for makeovers with makeup artists who shared the same facial condition. She also fronted  three series of ‘Body Shockers’ for C4 where she met people planning major body modifications and introduced them to someone who had already had the modification done and regretted it.   

Katie is regularly engaged as a public speaker and has told her inspiring story to audiences at public shows such as WE Day, Women’s Health Live and the Cosmopolitan Self Made Summit as well as for corporate events at Google, Facebook and The NHS.

Katie has also written a number of bestselling adult and children’s books and has now launched her own imprint The UnSeen, a brand new literary imprint that’s putting those who were previously ‘unheard’ at the forefront.  Katie’s most recent affirmation book, ‘A Little Bit of Hope’ was published last year and her first children’s book ‘All You Need’ was released in 2023 with the second book launching later this year. She is also currently working on the screen adaption of her first book which is due to start filming in 2025.
