I have put together a few very engaging, interesting and different talks. One of those may be just the thing you are looking for. Or if not, give me a call anyway and see what else I might be able to offer you.

What’s included in a talk?

All of my talks come from my experience as one of the top certified and accredited tour guides in Britain.

My talks cover a range of topics from maritime, rural England, walking journeys, historical themes and even a war topic: the Thankful Villages of the Great War.

These are only a few examples, so it would be wonderful to speak to you about your theme and a suitable talk!

New for 2020 - talks online via Zoom

The wonders of technology. Graham is now able to give most of his talks online, using the Zoom video meeting platform.

If you are holding your meetings virtually, you can hear exactly the same story as you would in a live talk.

Graham will even help your organiser set up the appropriate links.  Please get in touch with us to discuss further.
