Some case studies.
"Riverside Tales from London Bridge to Southbank"
This walk was a journey along the Thames, starting from London Bridge, one of the world's oldest viaducts. Not just a walk, but also a storytelling experience, Darren shared stories of his life that inspired and encouraged others to share. At a certain point team members shared their own personal stories to strengthen the team and encourage effective communication. They explored Borough Market, passed the Golden Hinde, and viewed the remnants of the Bishops of Winchester’s Palace. The route also includes the Shakespeare’s Globe, the OXO Tower, and concludes at the Southbank Centre, known for its remarkable architecture and cultural significance.
"Historic Stroll from Victoria to Trafalgar"
This walk took our guests through a journey across London's historical and cultural heart. Not just a stroll, it was a storytelling experience, where guests heard stories from Darren's life that inspired and encouraged others to share. Starting at Victoria Station, they saw Little Ben, passed through Cardinal Place shopping centre, and viewed Westminster Abbey from Tothill Street. The route included St James’s Park, offering views of Buckingham Palace and the London Eye, and concluded at Trafalgar Square, where they could marvel at Nelson's Column.
What if the weather is bad?
We can host the workshop in your office in a meeting space where you will still get to learn about the history of the area surrounding your office and like the outdoor experience our host will continue to encourage meaningful conversations between your team.
Who is your host?
Your host is Darren, an experienced actor who you may have seen in The Crown, Chicago Fire and on stage at prestigious theatres such as Steppenwolf and The Lord Chamberlains Men. He has extensive knowledge of storytelling, communication techniques and also London and it's rich history.
