Stirling Juggling Project - Juggling in the community
It may sound like we're just a bunch of silly people
who get together to drop things and laugh at each
other, but we at Stirling Juggling Project think there's
more to it than that! Our members believe that juggling
can also be a beneficial activity to the wider community,
and this is reflected in our actions.
Apart from the obvious aspects of performance, we
juggers have also participated in a large number of
Community events, mainly through our association with
Off the Record, and our proactive approach and enthusiasm
means that interest and demand for our talents is
increasing.

Some things people have said about us
Thank you for running your circus skills
workshop at the World Youth Congress 2005 in Scotland.
Your workshop was amazing and I know that the many
delegates who attended had a great time. I felt you
did a tremendous job keeping our young delegates entertained,
especially considering that they came from over 120
different cultures! I think your workshop was a great
part of a very important youth event and gave our
delegates a welcome brake from the difficult issues
of International Development that they were discussing.
Many thanks, Jamie Wakefield
Youth Liaison Officer
World Youth Congress - Project Planning Team
"I am writing to thank you and your team very

your colleague for entertainment, which you provided
at our open day... The feedback was very positive
and everyone who attended enjoyed the day" Christine Bauer, Director

"Thank you so much for coming along to the Bruntsfield
Christmas event and for organising the other performers.
The trader's association very much appreciated your
contributionto the evening's festivities...it was
