Talks

Illustrated Talks

Low cost illustrated talks for any local organisation and any age group, designed to inspire, to educate, or simply to amuse.

Keith has a particular gift for engaging older audiences, drawing on a working life spent across the North and East Midlands and a lifetime of stories well told. Whether for a history society, a club, a library or a care home, every talk is shaped around the audience in front of him.

Subjects include:

  • 18th century history, Keith's current passion

  • The March of the '45, the Jacobite rising

  • Environmental issues, from a professional career

  • The life of a Local Government officer

  • Rising from the ashes, starting a new life at 76

  • A childhood in 1950s England

  • The life of a writer

  • How to legally make a name for yourself

  • People I have met

  • Are you a duck or an owl?

This is only a shortlist, and there are many different tales within each subject. Talks can be shaped for a special audience or occasion. Tell Keith about your group and he will suggest something to suit.

Fees and travel:

Talks to local organisations are £65. Local means within 30 miles of Chesterfield. For venues further afield, an additional travel charge applies. If your organisation is outside the local area, please get in touch for a quotation.
