After our recent successful train the trainer workshops up in Treharris we were very happy to learn that not only had some of the participants been running their own DS workshops but also we were invited to help facilitate a 2 day session last Thursday and Friday.
It's always great to be out and about, especially when the group are such a great laugh. What I was really impressed with was the organisers of the event, Interlink in Rhydfelin, have been so keen to take DS forward as part of their work within the mental health support field, recognising it's potential in terms of allowing service users a voice as well as encourage them to tell their own story.
I think this is best demonstrated in the story "The road to Treharris" which is a call to all their service users to get involved with DS and other digital inclusion activities.
You can see all the stories over on the stories page.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank all involved, especially the guys at Interlink and Gofal for making this possible and really taking on the mantle of running digital storytelling workshops in the community.
