The Chelmsford Storyteller Project
A lifetime should lead somewhere.
Join Brian Thornton, Managing Director of Cheer TV, and presentation skills trainer Brian Naylor for a relaxed morning of tea, coffee and a masterclass on sharing your stories, skills and crafts on camera.
The morning
Forty years of nursing. A 200-year-old chair brought back to life. Local history nobody has written down. Whatever you know, someone wants to hear it, and you don’t need any experience in front of a camera.
