"Thank you for your enthralling storytelling session! Our children were left marvelled by the Greek Myths and have not stopped talking about your visit! The workshop helped to ignite a newfound enthusiasm towards old stories and old-fashioned storytelling both among the pupils and staff." Nottingham Primary School

“I was so grateful to Katy for coming into college and storytelling for us in such a bespoke way. It was really useful for the students to think about the tales in a different way and to understand the powerful nature of the stories when they are told, rather than read! We plough through the long texts in lessons and it was lovely to be able to enjoy them as they were meant to be enjoyed. It was a great experience for us all!” Richmond Sixth Form College
