  1. Hello
    I’m
    Looking for someone to run a crafting area at a living history festival this summer in Colchester (possibly two festivals) with the potential to develop ideas for this as well as realise existing ones.
    I’d prefer to talk in person – my numbers are 07957 518875 or 01206 822684.

    Thanks
    Jessie Chapman
