As you plan your activities programme for the coming year how about something a bit different to entertain your group, either at one of your regular meetings or perhaps for a special social function or dinner?

Let me come and perform a magic show for you! I am a member of the Magic Circle and enjoy performing to groups large and small with easy to follow but astounding tricks and a warm sense of fun and humour! And lots of audience participation!

About Alistair Brien

With over 18 years as the headteacher of a highly successful secondary school in Bournemouth—including three extraordinary years steering the school through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic—I bring a wealth of experience, insight, and humour to every audience I meet. Now retired from education but far from slowing down, I’ve embraced a new chapter as a celebrant, leading both weddings and funerals with warmth, empathy, and a touch of storytelling magic.

Speaking of magic—quite literally—I am also a proud member of The Magic Circle and regularly perform at weddings, dinners, and special events. My talks draw on a lifetime of leadership, resilience, and reinvention, blending personal anecdotes, educational wisdom, and yes, the occasional sleight of hand.

Whether you're looking to be informed, entertained, or inspired (ideally all three), I’d be delighted to share my journey with your group. There might even be a trick or two in my talk!
