Looking for an experienced speaker?

  • An outstanding speaker, Lauren’s enthusiasm is infectious. Her talk was full of surprising detail which brought the whole story to life for a broad and discerning audience. Lauren has a genuine gift for engagement which is supported by considerable knowledge.

    — Dany Rees, Library Engagement Officer, Wellcome Trust.

  • Captivating! Lauren had the audience spellbound from start to finish. Her natural, charming and engaging way of weaving a story enables her to hold the audience’s attention throughout. Striking the perfect balance between scholarly and humorous, Lauren demonstrates deep understanding of the subject and its wider historic context. Would definitely recommend.

    — Emma Warren, Curator of Chertsey Museum

  • Lauren was brilliant with our students and we would thoroughly recommend the workshop to other schools.

    — Laura Storey, teacher at Abbeywood School, Bristol (KS4)

If you’re looking for someone to deliver a History talk that is interesting, packed with storytelling and genuinely responsive to the audience, look no further!

I’m a very experienced public speaker, and as well as undertaking book tour talks everywhere from Westminster Abbey to BBC History festival in Chester, I have delivered talks for students (KS2 to post graduate level), the WI, local history groups, youtubers, heritage organisations… You name it, I’ve probably wanged on about History to them.

Oh and occasionally I pop up on the telly or a History podcast.
