I have been giving talks predominately on Medieval English history since the beginning of 2017. I completed a History degree from the Open University at Upper Second Class Honours level in 2024.
I am currently studying for a Masters Degree through the University of Kent. On the basis that that completes satisfactorily I intend to go on to study for a PHD. Thus I see myself today as a semi-professional speaker.
I have a complete brochure of talks available for any groups who might wish to use me.
I try to keep my fees reasonably modest usually not to exceed £115.00 except for those places in Kent or Sussex most distant from my home near Hailsham in East Sussex.
