Author Caroline Lawrence and actress Millie Binks gave a fascinating presentation on Friday at Colchester Arts Centre about life in Roman Britain. The half-term event proved popular with children and families from Colchester and further afield, all of whom enjoyed a free book from The Roman Mysteries series. The event has raised hundreds of pounds and brought us even closer to our target, as we enter the final week of the event.
Thank you to Colchester Arts Centre, and to Millie and to Caroline for giving up their time. Caroline is a patron of the appeal, and has worked incredibly hard using her contacts and her Twitter account to promote the Roman Circus appeal.
Caroline has already received some very positive feedback from members of the Colchester audience on her fanmail page.
Thanks to YOU and all the hard working unpaid volunteers! Hoping you’ll make the deadline… Can’t wait to see the results in a few years!
Caroline Lawrence was great. I learnt a lot about being an author.
