About me.......

Hello, I’m Hannah, a professional storyteller based in London.

I love telling stories, infact from an early age I’ve always been the storyteller in my family. I’m often found telling stories and keeping memories alive.

Now storytelling is my job, perhaps the best job in the world. I tell stories to children, adults, anyone who will listen. My work takes me to schools, gardens, theatres, people’s homes, pubs and storytelling on online digital platforms. The  stories I tell are often traditional tales, but I can’t resist adding twist or two. To find out more about my work click here

With my background in Speech and Language Therapy I combine my expertise in communication and language with the power of storytelling. Check out my work in schools.

I’d love to hear from you and have a chat about your storytelling needs.
