His distinct appearance complements his unique style that exudes a charisma which rivets audiences of all ages to his stories and descriptions of Sikh life and customs. In fact his storytelling is so compelling that he's capable of telling stories in Punjabi to a non-Punjabi audience and not only do they enjoy it - they understand it!! Roop Singh discovered his talent for storytelling over 15 years ago. He recalls, "As a school boy I was often bullied and victimised for wearing a Turban.

Roop Singh's workshops help pupils of all ages to understand other cultures and transform their own experiences into lively exciting stories.
