Take a Walk in My Shoes - Register here
This extraordinary book is about what it is to be a person of any age who has experienced the Care System. From the #SHETLANDCREW of Care Experienced leaders, working alongside poet Jen Hadfield, there are stories about identity, there are stories about love. There are stories of how we survive and how we thrive. There are stories of belonging, of self-belief, of the shining stars we all are. There are stories of who we are to each other.
‘We hope our book might be an eye-opener – something that helps you understand what it’s like to be Care Experienced. Maybe it can be a lighthouse – to help you navigate your own journey – whoever you are and whatever your life is like’
This workshop will allow you a special opportunity to explore the themes within Take a Walk in My Shoes, alongside the #SHETLANDCREW and Jen Hadfield.
