INSPIRING GREATNESS AND PRESERVING TRADITIONS
Alim Kamara is a British-Sierra Leonean rapper and storyteller. As a child living in Sierra Leone, Alim would listen to Djelis (storytellers), admiring the way they weaved lessons through their tales. Stories quickly became central to his life, and when he moved to London and started his music career, he used this same technique to achieve number one singles in both Sierra Leone and Nigeria.
He established Storie Storie to share the traditional Sierra-Leonean folk tales of his childhood in the UK. Through the organisation, he performs and runs workshops through schools, businesses and festivals.
Alim and his inspirational speakers share cultural and life stories that demonstrate success, disappointments, persistence and hard work. They share the tools that empower listeners to feel happy, express themselves and succeed.
"I felt very privileged to see you perform... Keep up the inspirational work, keep educating the young and refreshing the 'not so young' .
Let me know where I can find your next performances as I will definitely be bringing an entourage..."

"The children were not only educated through challenging misconceptions, but were also empowered to believe in themselves and have a positive outlook.
Alim Kamara had such an amazing connection and impact on our pupils and I know that this experience will be one that they will remember in many years to come."
