Working with Bev on the Celebrate Living History has
been a really good experience. It is a great
initiative that has been a pleasure to work with. I am
doing a degree in Public Relations and doing this
internship has showed me how it would be working for
a non-for-profit organisation. Bev is very
committed to the project and her enthusiasm rubs off
on me, making the work not only educational but also
fun.
