Openstorytellers is a charity created to enrich the lives of people with learning & communication difficulties using traditional stories & personal narrative. We help people be heard, understood, valued & respected & to join in community life.
We all use stories & narrative in every aspect of our lives: to make friends; develop relationships; to explain ourselves; to share experiences. Most of us take this for granted, while some people need someone to show them how. We help them to be heard.
