Champion Training Day
Stories for the Soul Champions
On September 8th we will meeting together at our St Bart's Training Centre with our new Stories for the Soul Champions who will be travelling from across the UK and internationally to meet together. They are coming to be inspired about how to share Stories for the Soul in their communities. The Champions are passionate people who have been working in care settings using Stories for the Soul over the last twelve years, and have seen how it has improved the lives of residents and care staff.
We will launching this new website on the day. We will be showcasing our speakers presentations, looking at the spirituality of older people and sharing stories of the work people have been doing. This will all be done over a cuppa and a slice of cake of course! We want to build community with Champions in the way we will be doing in the care settings, so there will be lots of time for chatting and discussion.
Our storyteller are made up of care home activity coordinators, artists, choir leaders, trainers, teachers, vicars and authors. It is an exciting eclectic mix of creative people who want to serve the older people in their communities. They will use their skills and backgrounds to share stories in their unique way, taking Stories for the Soul into care homes, community cafes, hospitals, lunch clubs, dementia cafes and churches.
