An interactive talk about the power of touch in our lives, and how our senses help bring memories to the fore. We tend to think about reminiscing as something older people do, but in fact we do it throughout our lives, at all ages. When we add the chance to touch something that inspires a memory into the mix, reminiscing can be a very powerful and positive experience.
This talk will include a range of artefacts to explore, from Box Brownies to Bakelite light switches, and the chance to reminisce.

I spent around 20 years working full-time in the museums & heritage sector before becoming entirely freelance.
Since 2020 I have had a portfolio career, working mainly freelance delivering engagement, learning, interpretation and communication for clients across several sectors. My clients are museums and more, so I use this as the name for my work.
