The power of a good story with James Turner, Creative Director

James Turner, Creative Director leads this session hosted by Future Shed as part of Green & Healthy Frome's focus on storytelling and communications.

James is a creative campaigning expert who has over two decades’ experience with organisations like Greenpeace, Amnesty, Patagonia and his own company Glimpse.

He specialises in using humour and entertainment to make big issues like climate change or refugee relief feel more relatable. His session will focus on the power of a good story to create a successful campaign.

This session is for anyone interested in storytelling - it will help you connect with new audiences on an emotional level, and understand how to put your work in a wider context which gets people excited and engaged.

You’ll hear lots of real world examples and have the chance to try out some of these techniques on your own work or projects. And there will be cats.

Who is this for:

• anyone in Frome and surrounding communities
• ages 16+

Come to Frome Town Council ready for a 7pm start.

The session will last for 2 hours.
