For a couple of years, I’ve been doing online demonstrations. I love doing it, either through Facebook Live or also with the Royal Voluntary Service. They run a Facebook page called the Virtual Village Hall. It started up during lockdown to give people chance to take part in all the activities that they would have done in groups at their local village hall.
They have classes for everything – exercise, meditation, languages, cooking and, of course, crafts. And this is where I come in. They asked me to do one demonstration for Easter three years ago and I’m still doing them! I do a couple of classes each month on lots of different things – I’m always trying a new craft and once I’ve got it I do a workshop.
I find it very easy being on camera, it’s like talking to yourself, so easy for me Ha ha. Once you get the hang of setting up the camera and connecting to the VVH, then it’s a doddle. I’ve built up a little following of regular viewers,
So, if you use Facebook, search @virtual village hall for live classes or go to their YouTube channel to look at past classes. Check out my demo’s while you there.
