Free School Talks

Our talks, which usually include consist of a lively presentation from one of our enthusiastic and knowledgeable Education Officers are of a purely educational nature with absolutely no fundraising strings attached.

This service is available FREE to schools - from infants to GCSE! We carry our own presentation materials and an average session usually lasts about an hour - but this can be adjusted to suit your requirements. One of our Education Officers will discuss your requirements in detail with you a few days prior to delivering the talk to ensure that it meets your objectives.

School Talks are currently available free of charge to schools WITHIN 100 MILES of CREWKERNE, SOMERSET, or KEIGHLEY, WEST YORKSHIRE.
