I am passionate about storytelling's ability to inspire, inform, educate, enable and enlighten. Whilst I have extensive experience of storytelling and storytelling workshops with family groups and children I have also used my storytelling skills in a variety of other contexts ranging from Women's Institute, Parent and Toddler Groups, nurseries and schools to adult education and community groups and festivals.

My particular brand of storytelling comes alive with younger audiences by way of a fun participatory repertoire of stories and songs taken from a wide variety of genres. These include Traveller tales, celtic tales, international tales, fairy tales, wonder stories, environmental stories and peace tales. I particularly like to incorporate tales that lend themselves towards emotional resilience.
