BookTastic Children’s Festival

In 2022 I evaluated the wonderful BookTastic Children's Book Festival in Bedford, which seeks to encourage a love of books and reading for all children. I ran focus groups with children at three primary schools in Bedford, led teacher discussions, and consulted with potential future local community representatives. I am delighted to have since been invited back to conduct evaluation annually, now including schools in Barrow-in-Furness, and to assist the Director in the exciting future developments currently taking shape for the Festival.
