Shreya speaks to two hundred students at Nottingham College about a career in writing (hers and their own)

…And gets glowing feedback from a very happy college! They want her back to speak to their students and so does the highly rated Bilborough College. But she has a book to finish writing for Penguin, so will engage with students again, which she finds very rewarding, in the new school year. Watch this space for more news about Shreya’s speaking engagements.

Shreya speaks to a packed British high school hall about creative careers and leadership for women, on a panel assembled by Britain’s biggest literacy charity, National Literacy Trust, and cosmetics giant Lancôme

She had this to say afterwards, “Lovely to get a thank you note from the National Literacy Trust, about my involvement with the Women in Leadership programme — ‘Your contribution definitely made a difference to the young people there!’. Even lovelier was the on-the-day feedback from the hundred (or so) young delegates who declared that they found my words and career “inspiring” and came across after the talk to chat some more about work and life (and book and film recommendations)! A thought-provoking and rewarding event, run by Lancôme and the National Literacy Trust.”
