Preserving family stories in their own voice
Part of Carer wellbeing

A short voice recording of someone telling a favourite story keeps not just the words but the way they tell it. Keep recordings short, private and made with their agreement.
Keep it simple
A phone is enough. Record in a quiet room and keep each story to a few minutes.
Label it
Give each recording a title and a date so it's easy to find later.
Privacy
Keep recordings within the family unless everyone involved agrees to share.
