We’re excited to be running a joint event with St Ethelburgas. In an attempt to draw on expertise and experience we want to explore why telling and sharing a personal story can have such a powerful impact.

This participatory day of cross-disciplinary dialogue and discussion, held in NW London, is open to anyone who works with live stories. The aim is to pool learning and build a more complete picture of the field of transformative storytelling,

Our latest contributor, Kelly Connor along with Professor Papadopoulos, who teaches on our Diploma will be taking part in the event.
