Last week Mog and I delivered a 2 day Digital Storytelling session to a very interesting and wonderfully hospitable organisation in Bridgend called Ecodysgu.
Ecodysgu are an environmental education centre offering workshops in creative expression. A not for profit community, Ecodysgu operates as an holistic education centre. Set in 42 acres of beautiful countryside it delivers a model of education called ‘Learning to Heal – Healing to Learn’.
The group (which included our first canine beneficiary in the form of a dog named Mouse) accessed our training as part of a wider package of support from the Communities 2.0 project. The staff receiving the training were enthused by the workshop and are planning to train their own service users to create their own stories. The team also intend to work with the local community to capture stories about the historic site which has many dilapidated buildings, such as an old Pit Pony Hospital.

The staff and volunteers at Ecodysgu created some brilliant stories, a few of which are available to watch below, plus more over on the STORIES page
