David Ralph began his working life as an apprentice upholsterer, before becoming a machine operator for a steel stockholder. It wasn't until he took his family to a holiday park in Wales and witnessed a show given by an expert children's entertainer that the genus of a creative business idea took hold. After being made redundant in 1984, David threw caution to the wind and embarked on building an incredibly successful business in children's entertainment and close-up magic, with membership of the British Magical Society among his many achievements.Due to his battle with Parkinson's disease, David is no longer an active entertainer but instead has chosen to share his wealth of knowledge of creating a business in children's entertainment and navigating the industry. David has also diversified into the field of hypnotherapy and continues to share his unique talents.
