Brought up in a large family in West Fife, Kate Walker enjoys singing and storytelling with all ages. Her stories come from near and far, but she especially likes to tell tales with a Scottish flavour and loves to tell stories with a BIG message, a wee twist or a clever ending! In 2011 Kate set up her own business, ‘Chatterbox Stories’ and since then she has worked extensively with many different groups and participating in festivals and community events in Fife and central Scotland. With a keen interest in the environment, local history, Scottish traditions and culture, Kate uses her skills as a storyteller and teacher to interpret people’s lives, past events and the natural world through tales and song.
Presented by the Scottish Storytelling Forum.
