Emma Freud, Emma Kennedy and Cherry Menlove at last year’s Henley Literary Festival.
We absolutely ADORE the Henley Literary Festival. We have a special relationship with them (well, we are both based in the same lovely town). You may notice that we share many of the same speakers too!
Established as one of the UK’s leading literary festivals, Doreen Lawrence, Francesca Martinez, Kirsty Wark and Princess Michael of Kent are among those heading to Henley-on-Thames from September 29th to October 5th. We’ve teamed with the Henley Literary Festival to come up with a special offer for BritMums where you can save on events featuring bestselling novelists including Jenny Colgan, David Nicholls, Tony Parsons and Adele Parks.
BritMums Live 2014 speakers appearing throughout the week include Emma Freud, who will be chatting to Dawn O’Porter about vintage fashion; Bryony Gordon, who will be in conversation with Grazia columnist Polly Vernon; and novelists Amanda Jennings and Hannah Beckerman.
This year’s festival has the biggest line-up of children’s events, with over 20 events during the week and over the weekend for children aged two and up, including storytelling, sing-a-longs and drawing workshops.
