Hello-I'm Nigel Preston-Jones a storyteller based in Newmarket, UK.
I am a member of the Cambridge Storytellers-I run the website for the group www.cambridgestorytellers.com - and am its treasurer.
I have been telling stories for, well... more years than I can remember.
I work as a professional storyteller
at a Cambridge hospital and have done so for 7 years. I'm one of a therapeutic team that includes a potter, an artist & a dance instructor.
I also work as a storyteller for an early-onset dementia group in Cambridge
As a teacher working with children of all ages I find stories are profoundly motivating for them.
I tell stories in schools and for groups like the WI, the National Trust, local history societies...
I specialise in stories from around the world choosing what I feel is best suited to each audience, with an emphasis on humorous tales, anecdotes and poetry. I love to leave people feeling cheerful at the end of a session.
If you would like me to come and tell stories for you and/or your group please contact me at: wonderfultales@googlemail.com
