Storytelling
Storytelling is good for you! It develops your imagination and improves your memory. You discover your hidden talents and feel more confident. We sing, dance, and use drama to enable everyone to get involved no matter what their ability.
Stories open out the world and enable Participants to interpret their own lives and emotions in relation to these new experiences in a safe and supportive environment.
Storytelling sessions improve key skills such as teamwork, memory, decision making and communication. The activities are designed to build confidence and a sense of self-esteem. Participants enjoy remembering former stories and the shared memories and experiences help to build a sense of community. Thus, reinforcing their feeing of belonging.
Storytelling widens people’s horizons and introduces them to new experiences and friends.
Individuals are encouraged to:
- Have fun and make friends
- Improve their memory
- Keep fit and active
