Introduction
Giglets was founded in 2011 by Craig Johnstone, Jax McGhee and Dr. Karsten Karcher. We started out with a simple idea; make classic stories more accessible and engaging, so as not to lose them in a digital age. However, through our own voyage of learning, we’ve engaged with a wider community of pupils, teachers, parents, artists, writers, storytellers, enterprises and charities, and with all this wonderful support we’ve created something we could never have imagined.
