We are available in the greater Bournemouth/Poole/Christchurch area and Dorset, (including Purbecks and Weymouth) Hampshire (including Southampton, Winchester and Lymington), the New Forest and Wiltshire (including Salisbury). Other adjoining areas considered. Book early for 2025/6 to avoid disappointment, (our diary is filling fast!). We have all our own equipment including pc, projector, screen, microphones and speakers although anything provided 'on site' is always useful. Just provide us with a power point, 2 chairs and an audience and we will do the rest.
Whatever the subject, we believe in presenting it in an entertaining way with the odd quirky fact and amusing tale as we go along (snoring is so off-putting). Try us, we are rather different. Well, there's 2 of us for a start!
