storytellerjim -stories for all!
Travel the world in your imagination
Jim tells stories to people gathered on a hillside, sitting in a circle at school, round a fire side, in a castle! After many years as a Primary school teacher in the city, and then leading an inner city environmental training site, Jim enjoys telling stories that demonstrate humanity’s dependence on nature, from local and world cultures.
We can have a laugh too!
Halloween: Jim does not deal in blood and fear, skulls and skeletons, but tells stories to grow awareness of spiritual dimensions, past and future. There are ghosts!
Come and listen!
