What is the difference between a talk and a workshop?
Keystone Workshops
Keystone Workshops offer parents the chance to hear an expert discuss a ‘niche’ topic in detail, within a small group setting. The main aim is to help educate parents so that they feel empowered to apply their learning in a very practical way at home.
Keystone Talks
Keystone Talks give audiences a unique opportunity to hear an expert offer an academic overview of a given topic. They tend to be delivered to large numbers of people and in more of a ‘lecture style.’
All tickets must be purchased in advance through the ‘BOOK NOW’ button at the bottom of each event. A small number of tickets may be available for some events at a higher price on the night.
