World of Afternoon Tea offers an unusual and memorable enrichment activity. Examples of cultural organisations we have spoken to include the Jane Austen Society of North America, the Monarchist League of Canada, and individual branches of the University of the Third Age (U3A).
For private members, sports & leisure clubs, and women’s groups, please see their dedicated pages.
“Gillian was a fantastic speaker for our Jane Austen Society of North America regional event. She tailored her talk on the history of tea to our group’s special interests. Her talk was informative, fun, and engaging. Just a delight!”

Co-Regional Coordinator, JASNA Idaho Southern Region
“We were fascinated by the awe-inspiring tales you revealed…You delivered the information with such aplomb, that we felt we were drinking tea with you, and even eating those delicious cakes. The flurry of questions that followed your talk showed that you certainly captured our members with this topic. Once again, thank you so much for a wonderful talk.”
