An evening with your life your story

Amanda Knowles

2021

This poetry led discussion explores the experiences of children raised in the care of the state and their caregivers, the impact of abuse and the importance of truth.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
