Free zine - With Us
With Us celebrates working with in action. We showcase real not perfect.
You can expect stories about:
The genuine leadership and involvement of people with lived and living experience
The lessons, wins and messy bits
Welcome to the very first edition of with us.
A place to shine a light on co-design + working with
lived experience done right.
If you have met me over at The Better Together Collective you will know that.
This issue is a virtual high five for lived experience advocates, leaders and champions - those who draw upon their firsthand experiences to inform change. It’s about celebrating their strength, tenacity (and all-round awesomeness) + shining a light on the many ways they transform the words ‘nothing about us without us’ into real life action that changes lives.
This time around, we’ve brought along a great little selection of top projects and people who’ve been very busy out there putting people with lived and living experience, their voices and perspectives right at the heart of their work.
As usual, we’ll be skipping the glossy spin and getting straight to talking to those on the ground doing working with for real - because if there’s one thing I keep hearing on my travels, it’s that people want less buzzwords and jargon, more practicalities and people.
Got a story to share?
We’re always looking for great examples of working with projects, told from the perspective of those with lived or living experience.
Please get in touch if you’ve got a story to share.
