We associate learning with hard work and entertainment with trivia. It doesn’t have to be like that. Things that excite us and inspire us can be serious and enjoyable. We can engage our hearts and our minds at the same time. This is my approach to presenting. I want people to enjoy the experience and learn from it; each of us in our way and at our own pace.

ENDORSEMENTS
Thank you for your superb presentation and for all your considerable skills – it was a star performance! Without you, it would have been heavy-going. You brought a
splendid lightness of touch to things but with a complete focus on the issues. Thanks so much.
- Bishop Philip Egan. Bishop of Portsmouth
You have reawakened a new joy and a new enthusiasm. May the seeds you have sown bear a rich harvest. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
- Bishop Steve Low. Bishop of Auckland. New Zealand
It is testament to you that those who had put the day in the diary with some reluctance, were the ones who most wanted to tell others in our teams how profound
the experience was.

I have never laughed and cried so much in one day.
- Leslie Galiatos. Head Teacher. St Aidan’s Catholic School, Toronto
It is amazing how just a few short hours can actually positively affect your sense of purpose.
