I am a retired qualified lecturer and teacher and have been giving talks for over 30 years, The talks I give have been fully researched by myself, they are shown on slides and include original photographs, videos and recordings were relevant, that have been acquired from around the world. The slides are richly illustrated and for clarity, I keep the number of words on each slide to a minimum. Talk fees are £75 plus reasonable travelling expenses at 35p per mile, when travelling from London. I am able to fill in at short notice, if available, and I can speak daytime or evenings.
