Learning by stories

We often learn best by reading or listening to someone tell their story. A personal narrative helps us relate to the information better and be inspired by it.

We have piloted this idea by enabling two groups to tell their improvement story.

If you have a good story to tell, why not contact martyn.allison@local.gov.uk.
