Beginner-friendly.
What to bring:
Please note: Public dates for this class require at least 2 attendees to run. In the unlikely event that we don't reach this number, we'll cancel the class; in this case we'll inform you and allow you to get a refund or reschedule, so please watch your email/SMS one day prior to the class.

Ruth Darling was first introduced to life story work during the Covid pandemic. She started to work as a home carer and the initial training highlighted its power to support well-being and person-centred care, especially for older people.
She has since combined life story scrapbooking with her career as a freelancer working in the cultural sector and recently co-ordinated a life story project with Halton Libraries.
Through Life Story Hive, she creates life story scrapbooks with the support of other freelance colleagues who are designers, editors and proofreaders.
