We piloted Our Story, Our Superpower, a five-week community wellbeing programme designed to encourage connection, confidence, and creative power through storytelling. The first cohort was an intergenerational group of strangers, commissioned by Havering Changing last summer.

Our thoughts then moved towards the young people/adults, who are statistically the loneliest group in the UK. How can Our Story, Our Superpower respond to the loneliness epidemic amongst young people? 🤔

We had the opportunity to deliver a taster session at @weare_spotlight to a curious group of teens - who exist in the margins and who need a sense of belonging more than ever

With cuts to safe third spaces, an under-resourced NHS mental health service, and rising youth isolation, initiatives like Our Story, Our Superpower can play a vital role in a wider support system for young people
