Arctic Holidays

Talks


I have given a variety of slide talks and illustrative presentations to group sizes varying from 5 to 200+ and aged 8 to 80+! Through these talks I hope to share my personal and often humorous experiences from my wilderness explorations, inspiring, encouraging and motivating others to believe in their dreams, whatever they might be!

I can deliver interactive workshops and provide follow-up educational resources for schools. I am a qualified teacher and have taught in both the classroom and the outdoor/environmental context for the last 19 years. The resources cover a range of aspects of polar life, e.g. Key Stage 1 and 2 - Polar bears vs penguins; Key Stage 3 and 4 - The Antarctic Treaty and ozone issues; Full age range - PSHE issues, e.g. self belief, teamwork.

I have also used these 'challenging adventures' and talks afterwards as a way of raising funds and awareness for a variety of different charities:-

	Macmillan Nurses	www.macmillan.org.uk
	Goodwill Childrens Homes	www.goodwillhomes.org.uk
	Challenge Cancer Through Adventure	www.challengecancer.org.uk
	Wateraid	www.wateraid.org.uk
	Freeplay Foundation	www.freeplayfoundation.org

If you would like me to give a talk to your group, please contact me at helenturton@hotmail.com to discuss your requirements. Alternatively, drop me a line to see if I am already planning on giving a public talk in your area of the country.
