My Cheltenham talk reviewed!

June 6, 2017

PH 3 2017

Last month I went back to my old school, Cheltenham Ladies’ College, to give a lecture to the girls who go there now. It was an amazing honour, and a very special experience … and now CLC girl Isabella has written up the most lovely review of it. She says:

‘I’ve always wanted to be an author when I grow up, so after listening intently to Robin’s speech, I feel inspired by a girl who has been where I am now; a girl with an inventive imagination, who cannot find enough time to let her creativity out.’

Read the whole of Isabella’s prizewinning review here – I am so overwhelmingly proud to have inspired her, and the other girls I spoke to!
