At the age of 64, Audrey Fortescue wrote her first book - it’s never too late to start something new! Three of her grandchildren feature in the Opin’s Magic Boxes series. Audrey now lives in South Wales, but was born in Northern Ireland. Her passion for travelling provides much inspiration. Audrey trained as an occupational therapist, then worked as a teaching assistant, and was instrumental in starting one of the most successful Scout Groups in Wales.
