Life Story Work is an engaging, enjoyable & deeply meaningful activity that explores and documents the significant milestones of a person’s life story. It’s valuable as a ‘stand alone’ activity, in that it requires us to be deeply present with the person, affording them autonomy over what is shared & creating person-centred connection through active listening, compassion & empathy.
It also facilitates the creation of resources to turn to when seeking a deeper understanding of a person. Life Story Work supports better, more meaningful conversations,and is relevant no matter where the person is on their journey to living well with dementia.
