On the road 2025

I’m thrilled to bring the Mimitoys Puppet Range to Navan for Meath’s first Neurodiversity Family Festival. This brilliant community initiative celebrates neurodivergent joy, family connection, and inclusive play in a sensory-friendly environment. I’m so proud to be part of an event that puts thoughtfulness, creativity, and accessibility at its heart. Come say hello, explore the puppets, and enjoy an amazing day, where every child, and every difference, is celebrated. The event takes place at Navan Adventure Centre on Saturday, August 30th 2025. A portion of proceeds will go toward local inclusion initiatives led by Neurodiversity Navan.

I'm looking forward to attend the upcoming "Empowering Connection" event on the 22nd of August in the Avon Rí, Co. Wicklow. This will be my second time joining a conference hosted by the inspiring team at TSK Academy! I’ll be showcasing a vibrant range of puppets (always super popular) to support the incredible work being done in the neurodiversity space.  This powerful day is designed for professionals working with children and young people. Teachers, therapists, social workers, and anyone are passionate about creating connection, trust, and emotional safety for neurodivergent individuals.  With keynotes from leading voices in neurodiversity and hands-on workshops focusing on co-regulation, communication, and resilience, this event promises to be both practical and deeply moving.  TSK Academy’s mission of Empowering Neurodiverse Communities through inclusive education and support truly resonates. I’m thrilled to play a small part in this movement, both as a participant and a resource exhibitor.

I’m delighted to be returning to Navan Education Support Centre on the 1st and 2nd of July, where I’ll be showcasing the Mimitoys puppet range during the Centre’s summer CPD courses for teachers. This is my second year attending and I’ve really enjoyed the great conversations, feedback, and interest from educators who see the real value of puppets in the classroom. I’m always excited to meet more teachers and discuss how puppets can support storytelling, emotional expression, and inclusive play across all age groups.
