Workshop by the ‘Our Stories’ team at the Lakeside conference centre in Eastleigh

The ‘Our Stories’ team held an in-person training workshop on 9th February 2023 at the Lakeside conference centre in Eastleigh. The workshop introduced the ‘I am’ Digital Stories methodology to education and related professionals including teachers, speech and language therapists, educational psychologists, SENCOs, occupational therapists, and third sector community groups. Students from New Forest School prepared and served the catering on the day, which was very well received by all. This event was funded by the University of Southampton’s ESRC Impact Acceleration Account and New Forest School.
