PUBLIC SPEAKING

I would be happy to talk to small groups and clubs about my love of Derbyshire or my adventures with Alfie.  

I wrote a series of articles for the Peak Advertiser about dogs which are either involved with charities or are working dogs. I have spoken about this on several occasions and the talks have proved very popular. 

 

The articles included police dogs with a visit to the Police Headquarters at Ripley; sniffer dogs where I enjoyed a couple of hours in Sudbury Prison; and visits to the homes of a canine partner, pets as therapy dog, hearing dog and guide dog for the blind. 

Alfie also had a go at being a working sheep dog high on the moors above Hathersage and experienced what it was like to be an abandoned dog in the High Peak Kennels.

I charge fees from £30 for up to 1 hour’s talk, as long as the venue is within 10 miles of Bakewell. If further than this, I would include travelling expenses.
