I will be in authentic costume and I will talk about life in medieval England from the point of view of feudal peasant and a Sergeant Templar, as well as generally about other classes.
The presentation will be illustrated with weapons and armour of the time as well as everyday household items. The audience is encouraged to handle all of these items.
I will need to be able to park at, or very close to, your venue entrance. This is a real MUST and if that cannot be arranged then I'm afraid that I cannot accept a booking.
The presentation lasts about 60 minutes, and is suitable for all age groups, including schools.

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL MY TALKS LAST AROUND 60 MINUTES.
I am based in Thetford, Norfolk, but happy to travel. My work history is 29 years a police officer, followed by 4 years as a manager for Autoglass, then by 10 years as a prison officer and ending with 3 years as an Inclusion Manager in a secondary school. I am now a Town Crier and have been a speaker for over 20 years.
My website (www.medievalworld.org.uk) gives details of the talks and presentations I can offer. All my presentations last for about 60 minutes and cost £50 plus a fee for travel. However, I do not charge the standard 45p per mile, but only for what petrol I use for the journey.
