Key Details

• Caabu does not charge a speakers fee for visits. We do ask, however, that schools cover any travel expenses incurred, and, if necessary, the costs of overnight accomodation.
• Our speakers are fully CRB checked.
• All our speakers will require access to a laptop and a date projector. Our talks are usually based around a Powerpoint presentation, so any provided IT systems need to be fully compatible with the .ppt and the .pptx file formats.

Supporting our Education work

• All of Caabu's work in schools is conducted free of charge. Unfortunately, this sort of work is very demanding in terms of administration and staff time. The average one hour workshop, for example, costs Caabu approximately £150. So that we can continue to offer this vital service, we gratefully accept any contributions to our costs or donations for our work from the schools that we work with.To donate just click on the Paypal link on the right hand side of this page.
