The aim for Your Life Your Story [YLSY] is to amplify the power of the collective voice through mutually rewarding relationships - we are Stronger Together. It is about improving the system for children in care and the adults they become. Childhood trauma does not leave you at 18, 25 or even 65 it is a lifetime struggle for too many. It is about how the 'system' shapes the care children receive and the value of the shared story - care is not one dimensional. When talking to care experienced adults who have lived a life beyond care there is more that connects us than divides us. It is all about helping the members of the community to tell their story.... their way.
