WHAT PEOPLE SAY
NICK CLABBURN, THOMAS' KENSINGTON
We all loved Deya's totally inspirational talk and she is always welcome. We were amazed by her film skills - she clearly has a gift
EDD RICHARDSON, BTE ACADEMY
Deya's talk was very well received and I've heard from teachers that many of the students are already inspired to do something to help as part of our Environmental tutorials next week. Deya;'s ability to present, so clearly and professionally, her own fascinating story and experiences, while also providing general advice about what they should consider when thinking about their own careers, is truly outstanding. As part of my role I observe a lot of teachers and I can say with certainty that Deya really has a gift for communicating, educating and inspiring others.
TOM ISHERWOOD, PARAGON SCHOOL
The children learnt a huge amount from your orangutan talk and have been talking about it all of today, they went home and started checking their shampoos!
