Storysharing® chosen for Launchpad pilot

We are delighted to have secured one of the Launchpad pilots for London Social Ventures to explore innovative solutions to problems in Health and Social Care.

Making research travel: Our first two Impact Launchpad pilots

Storysharing® is a unique intervention that supports individuals with severe communication problems to recall and share everyday experiences in the form of collaborative conversations.

This promotes identity, memory, community, strong inter-peer relationships, listening, agency, and equality.

Storysharing addresses loneliness and wellbeing by providing mental stimulation.

It promotes independence – making choices depends on remembering the experience and consequences of previous choosing.

It fosters high quality care, better knowledge of residents, and more effective communication between staff and residents.

It provides enjoyment and sense of purpose for staff.

The pilot project will be developed and evaluated over the next six months, working in partnership with providers and the Social Ventures team.
