I am very happy to say that my talk to the audience at the Wellington Literary Festival in October was a great success and was very well received. I had a lot of very enthusiastic and complimentary comments on the evening and afterwards about the talk and everything that we are doing to support local and national charities from our talks.
Thank you to everyone who came to listen to me and for being such a lovely and enthusiastic audience.
I am very grateful to the Wellington Literary Festival Organisers for kindly inviting me to speak and to Pat Fairclough for her introduction and generous vote of thanks on the evening.
I would also like to say a very big thank you to Caroline Mulvihill for all her hard work and help with the Festival. It is so often the people we don't see that make these events really happen. Thank you very much Caroline.
The Festival was a great success across all events and continues to grow in reputation.
