WORKSHOPS

BLABBERMOUTH's storytelling and storymaking workshops use traditional tales as a starting point for community building and personal development. Workshops can be bespoke, tailored to your specific requirements. Here are some examples: 

NO MORE HEROES

Traditional hero narratives are ingrained in our imagintion and, as a result, in our relationship with our own lives and the wider world. But what happens when there are no heroes to fix our problems. This workshop up-ends traditional narratives to explore the power of communities working together to discover communal solutions to their problems. 

STORYTELLING FOR CONFIDENCE

This workshop series adapts the skills and techniques of the storyteller to help participants develop your self confidence.

VOLUNTEER TRAINING

Dan has many years experience working with and training volunteer groups across the heritage sector. These sessions bring that experience to the fore, applying the power of stories in creating an engaged and confident volunteer force - suitable for any organisation with volunteers engaging directly with the general public. Contact us to discuss how BLABBERMOUTH can enhance your public offer.​​​
