My mother Olga Stew survived the November 1940 Blitz on Coventry. This is the story of her experience and how it shaped her life. I have succesfully delivered this twice in my local community library and in 2 FE Colleges in Worcesterhsire and a school in Warwickshire. I have received very positive feedback - see my Facebook page I can easily adapt the talk to the time/needs/objectives of individual groups.
