Jane-marie Wright, Founder & Creative Director said: “I fell in love with Chesterfield a long time ago and have lived in North East Derbyshire for a good 25+ years.

“I felt that Chesterfield was the right place to set up the Studio as my Autism Children’s Club has run in Derbyshire since 2003, so it made sense to continue supporting Autism through the Digital Storytelling that Sparky Ink Studio offers.”
