” A huge thank you for delivering such an engaging, informative and personal talk to our Sixth Form yesterday. The feedback from the pupils is that it was the “best ever” and “so interesting”!. I am very grateful to you for your time.”

Leadership in War

“Thank you for a superb session. After a heavy morning of classes, it had to be something good to keep everyone’s attention. It was surprising how much some of them already knew about the trenches but you gave such detail and so graphically that it was all new. I’ve never seen a child so excited as when one of them worked out everything about your grandfather.

I hope we can arrange another talk before too long.”

King’s School, Chiswick
