I have given family storytelling workshops in primary schools. I can work with pupils to create picture books based on traditional or original stories, or to create oral tellings of traditional tales.

Literacy Days, Arts and Book Weeks, single day or multiple visits as part of an ongoing project have all been part of my work as a full-time teller of tales. I have told stories as part of The Essex Book Festival for a number years and conducted workshops for teachers for Essex LEA.
