The Creative Life Story Work Podcast explores how a creative approach to life story work can help children and young people who have been in care make sense of their past, and build a brighter future.

A new model for life story work is being rolled out in the North East of England, and this podcast shares the latest learning, and investigates how it could help improve the lives of care-experienced children and young people across the country.

Whether you’re a foster carer, someone who has experience of the care system, or you work with children and young people, we hope that this podcast show will give you an insight into how we could make life story work better for young people.
