About Me

Hello its me Malcolm Busby. Why might you be looking at my page, possibly because you want to hire a STORYTELLER. If thats the case you are in the right place. 

I dont just tell STORIES though I also work as a Field Ecologist and as a Gardener. A varied portfolio they tell me but a good one, they keep me grounded in reality and the natural world that I love.

Yes I admit it might sound odd but they go together well, even complementing each other. Working outdoors is a great way to rehearse a story as well as calming the mind and connecting with the world around you and yourself.  

After all if you wanted a STORYTELLER to tell ENVIRONMENTAL STORIES or lead ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION activities who better than  a STORYTELLER who works in that area and understands it. Being at one with nature and knowing my place in the world is so precious to me and whats those words MINDFULNESS and WELLBEING, well I can help there as well.

You can find out more about each of my work areas on another page, click on the ABOUT US tab at the top. Why ABOUT US well  there has to be more than one of me hasn't there!

 So you've read that lot, what about me! 

Whats the background, well I was born in and have lived in what is now Cambridgeshire most of my life,  with a couple of years in Suffolk for good measure.  Come from good countryside stock I do.

Cambridgeshire is a lovely county full of great views, wildlife and some good stories. Its full of historical sites and has been home to lots of characters with even more stories.

I am self employed, a sole trader, freelance, a free spirit, whatever you want to call it with a broad range of skills that I put to good use in every job I do. Oh yes I do. Where did I learn them all, well from life but also from employment in engineering and countryside management.

Whatever and wherever I am working, for an hour or a day or longer all my work is carried out professionally to the best of my ability, with a good attitude and manner.

Hold you on even Harder its more news. 2024 went very well with some amazing feedback at Ely Folk Festival but the best of had to be this from the organiser of an Open Farm Sunday event. " I witnessed a child actually being dragged away from a second visit to the story teller as Mum needed to go home".

Christmas 2024 also saw Santa (Malcolm) and his reindeer helper carrying out a number of visits to day centres, care homes and even a pub and with feedback like this Santa will definately be out and about with his sleigh and reindeer helper around Christmas 2025....This from a Mum of three boys, "We took them early on in the afternoon to see another Santa and my oldest came away disappointed as he said that wasn't the real Santa... this morning after seeing you later in the afternoon he woke up and straight away was talking about Santa and his stories and said that was definitely the real Santa as he knew too much about the North Pole and knew all about the Elfs he had a proper beard and had a proper deep voice then he said I can't believe I met the real Santa Clause".
