About the Event:
It may be that you have had an event in your life that has
shaped you and your decisions, indeed your lifepath. It may well
be that such a story has not been spoken aloud by you to
others. This workshop is about you and your daring to say what
to date has been largely wordless. It's about how good it is to be
you in the world (while remaining humble of course!). It might be
a small incident.
This workshop is about a celebratory story about you and your
life. Even if it has been told before it may be worth telling again
with verve.
Is it a time for you to become a storyteller of such an event?

“What donation tier might be best applicable to me?”
Concession Tier 1 - This tier is for those who are students on a low income, carers, or single parents. It is also for people who are unemployed or underemployed, navigating financial hardship, or facing systemic barriers. If you rarely spend on extras or feel stressed about meeting basic needs, this tier exists so that you can still participate. Your presence matters, and you are welcome here.
Sustainable Tier 2 - Choose this tier if you have stable employment or a regular income, are able to meet your basic needs and some wants, and can occasionally go out or put a little money aside. At this level, you don’t often worry about making ends meet.
Generous Tier 3 - This option is for those with a comfortable income or savings, who may own their home or have access to family wealth. You might go on holidays, eat out regularly, or shop for pleasure. Contributing at this tier helps support the wider community and those accessing the concession rate.
