Our Life Stories is made possible with The National Lottery Heritage Fund. Thanks to National Lottery players, we have been able to co-produce and document these real, disabled and autistic experiences from the last fifty years, preserving the accounts for future generations.

We'll be open tomorrow from 10am-4pm at the Cornwall Museum, followed by a very special launch night on Thursday to celebrate the project.

We’d love to see you this week before we head off to London on Saturday, so grab your tickets here: buff.ly/XCuapUY

After making each heart, they wrote some kind, thoughtful words on them for one another. What a lovely crafty session!

Love was definitely in the air at Oakfield last week ❤️

Some of the people we support got creative ahead of Valentine’s Day, making beautiful cards and decorating a wall full of hearts to share the love.

What a brilliant opening night yesterday for Our Life Stories in Nottingham! ✨

Nottingham Contemporary was buzzing with so many familiar faces, and we were even joined by the fantastic United Voices choir! Such a special way to kick things off.

Dan hasn’t just met his fundraising target… he’s completely smashed it and gone above and beyond. Thank you so much for your amazing support, Dan!

A big shoutout to our London Marathon runner, Dan, who recently hosted a quiz fundraiser and raised an incredible £750+ for United Response!

There was a fantastic turnout for both the quiz and raffle, with generous prizes donated by local businesses, including a £500 holiday from Away Resorts 🏖️

They try to gather for games day a couple of times a year, and they’re always a highlight for everyone involved!

There was plenty of fun (and even some friendly competition!) at Limmer Lane’s recent games day 🎲

Some of the people we support got together to enjoy homemade games, lovingly built by one of our tenants’ parents, along with some great food and even better company.

Keep your eyes peeled to find out who the successful applicants were.

And check out this photo of the group during some training that took place on the day, facilitated by Pathways Associates based in Greater Manchester.

The members of the People's Forum have now assessed the second round of applications for our People's Fund - giving people the opportunity to apply for funding to support the achievement of life goals and ambitions. This time round, we are proud to announce £12,000 has been approved by the panel!
