Olly & Friends is a hands‑on programme from lesleyannecavendish.com that extends beyond storytelling. Designed specifically for the Learning Centre, special education settings and public schools in Ware and the surrounding region, the programme offers practical, inclusive activities that link directly to the UK curriculum. It is ideal for children’s bookshops, boards of education, wholesalers and libraries looking for resources that work in real classrooms and community spaces. Workshops are delivered on site at your learning centre or library and can be tailored for Early Years, KS1 and KS2. Sessions include sensory story times, social skills workshops and guided group activities that encourage communication, turn‑taking and confidence. Each workshop is practical and classroom‑ready, with clear objectives and follow‑up suggestions for teachers and support staff. Adapted teaching packs support SEN needs and mainstream differentiation alike. Packs contain lesson plans, visual timetables, social stories, symbol sets and tactile activity sheets so staff can use Olly & Friends across multiple sessions. Everything is curriculum‑linked and easy to adapt for individual education plans or group learning targets. Libraries and children’s book retailers can choose from themed activity kits and wholesale book bundles designed for circulation or retail. Wholesale options include bulk discounts, promotional materials and suggested display guides to make books and activities accessible to a wide range of learners. lesleyannecavendish.com also offers training for teachers, teaching assistants and library staff to embed inclusive practice with Olly & Friends. Whether you need a one‑off inset day, a series of termly visits or bespoke packs for a whole year group, the programme is flexible, evidence‑based and rooted in everyday classroom use.
