92 years old Charlie talks about his work ethic, his thought on decision making, working hard and getting on.
‘Together We Are Stronger’ is a project to record stories of isolation, bravery, and kindness during lockdown to reconnect generations and foster a sense of community (during the Covid-19 pandemic) via digital storytelling. Led by artist Natasha Rand, we are working with care home residents and staff, elderly, young people and creatives in Yeovil, telling the stories of bravery and kindness across generations. Podcasts, exhibition, window displays, workshops and family activities are taking place in different forms and locations.
