Beverley has been a member of the Scottish Storytelling Directory of Professional Storytellers for almost two decades. She is currently Chair of the Scottish Storytelling Forum and regularly provides workshops and mentoring opportunities for emergent Storytellers, both young people and adults.

A vibrant individual, Beverley’s stories have a huge emotional range, often poignant, sometimes funny, and everything in between. 

Highlights so far, and there have been many, have included an annual pre-Fringe spot for visitors to Edinburgh, producing bespoke events for TradFest, hosting and performing at the Scottish International Storytelling Festival’s Open Hearth events, telling stories at Linlithgow Palace and the National Library of Scotland. She was our Guest Speaker at the St. Andrew’s Night dinner here in November.

Having many strings to her bow keeps Beverley from wearying, so as a Humanist Celebrant conducing both weddings and funeral ceremonies, she also gathers the stories of people’s lives and is endlessly amazed by the individuals she hears about and the couples she meets. 

During the evening, Beverley will be telling a range of Scottish tales, from myth to legend and everything in between.
