These are the people who have inspired us to do what we do. Thanks!
Andrea Bridge, Learning & Engagement Commisioning Officer at Leicestershire County Council Arts & Heritage
Andrea's approach to learning through historical interpretation has shaped what we do and we both thoroughly enjoyed working with her at Leicestershire County Council museums.
Ben Kingston-Hughes, Play Consultant & Manager at Inspired Training & Children's Services Solutions

I met Ben years ago and when he offered me Playwork experience at the Northfields Playbarn in Leicester before I became a teacher I grasped the opportunity. I've always enjoyed working alongside Ben over the years and we incorporate some of his playwork ideals in the way we approach much of our work with children. Inspired and inspiring!
Lesley Smith, Curator of Tutbury Castle
Lesley's commitment to character work and attention to detail inspires both of us and we aspire to match her remarkable research.
Mark Wallis, Managing & Artistic Director at Past Pleasures Ltd.
My first encounter with costumed interpreters was aged six with some Viking re-enactors (the picture is elsewhere on our site!) but it was Mark's work at the many treasured Georgian Festivities in Royal Tunbridge Wells which really inspired me to dress up and "trick people into learning with a laugh." Thanks!
Christopher Davies, Artistic Director at Bamboozle Theatre
Chris taught Lisa drama at Youth Theatre and the skills which he helped to develop are invaluable to us in our daily work. I later met Chris, leading drama lessons myself in Leicester and we are both greatly inspired by Bamboozle's work.
