GROUP "In this poignant book, Lisa Cherry brings together a collection of
candid and personal reflections on the care system in the UK, offering
alternative ways of thinking about the care experience, supporting
better ways of working, and providing justification for a
trauma-informed lens to be applied to all forms of work with those in
care.
Through personal insights and reflections, the book brings
often-unheard stories vividly to life, beginning with the author’s own.
These are stories about love and pain; hurt and isolation; the depth of
lived experience that makes up a life; how we live our lives through our
relationships with others and where we feel we fit in. In this
thoughtfully compiled third edition, original contributors look back on
their own reflections from the lives that they live now, new stories
bring new perspectives, and discussion points provide the opportunity to
consider the realities of the care experience as well as life beyond."

Stories from Care Experienced Adults to Inspire Change
| "Whilst each story is unique, shared themes reveal the truth of the care
system and, coming at a time where there is a real opportunity for
change, the narratives in this book are ultimately stories of hope and
connection. This is crucial reading for policy makers, those working in
social work, education and adoption, as well as care experienced adults." [Text c/o Routledge]
