Ella Fitzgerald

Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara

2016

Meet Ella Fitzgerald (who was in kinship care and a reform school as a teenager), one of the most influential jazz singers of all time. This mini biography charts Ella's life, from her early singing days on the streets of Harlem, to her success as a jazz legend, with the message: 'It's not where you come from, but where you're going that counts.' This inspiring story of the First Lady of Song features a facts and photos section at the back.

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.
