About this episode
In this episode, recorded on location, host Mark Norman meets members of the Turning Tides Project to talk about their Arts Council funded project AND 'OTHER' STORIES which presents the work of a group of artists with and without 'learning disability' and 'autism' labels.
And 'Other' Stories reworks fairy tales and folktales in different ways to challenge our ideas about disability. It invites you to:
- Consider the human tendency to exclude and create "Other".
- Look for ways we can value our rich heritage of traditional stories in a way that respects everyone, as equal.
- Immerse yourself in multi-sensory approaches to storytelling.
- Experience an approach to presenting information that gives everyone equal access to that information.
Mark discusses the project with facilitators Abi and Jane from Turning Tides, along with two of the participants.
