“The sharing stone helps me to talk about my feelings, so when I am playing with it, my [carer] knows that I want to talk about something.”
Creative Life Story Work combines activities facilitated by professional artists with therapeutic life story work, to help children and young people better understand their own life stories.

Blue Cabin has worked with South Tyneside Council, Darlington Borough Council and Gateshead Council to roll out this new approach and improve the lives of care-experienced children and young people in these areas.
We’re now inviting other local authorities to get in touch to find out about using the Creative Life Story Work model.
What are the benefits?
We would love to talk with you about using Creative Life Story Work in your local authority.
