“I just wanted to thank heard Storytelling so much for your time and patience with me, and for including me in such an inspiring project. I genuinely can see how what you do can impact so many people and I feel it on such a personal level.”
- Jules, Storyteller
“I’ve absolutely loved it. Just being able to feel confident in expressing how I’m feeling, with the good, the bag, the ugly - has been a real eyeopener. Hand on my heart, thank you!”
- Anthony, Storyteller
“It’s nice to have someone be interested in hearing something that i have to say, and that potentially meaning that someone, even if its’ just one person can come away from this exhibition and go ‘okay, I can carry on today’.”
- Graysen, Storyteller
