Symposium: Storytelling for Change

We are delighted to welcome you for a full day of keynote speeches, talks, workshops and discussions in which we explore Storytelling as a driver for change.

Discover how storytelling can be harnessed to affect real change: from the deeply personal to strategic change in communities, services and policy. Explore the potential of Storytelling as a force for connection and understanding in an ever shifting political and social landscape. And consider the changes necessary for the storytelling sector to be inclusive, contemporary and reflective of our communities. We will be joined by a range of exciting speakers and presenters throughout the day.

Who is the symposium for:

Storytellers, artists, creative practitioners and heritage professionals interested in deepening their practice or driving change and supporting inclusion within the arts and heritage.

Educators, Community Practitioners and those in Health & Social Care interested in story-led approaches.

Funders, Public Sector workers and Third Sector leaders interested in storytelling for strategic change.

Anyone else with an interest in Storytelling, Inclusion and the Arts.
