Talks

In recent years we have given many, many talks to all sorts of groups:  retirement villages, Age Concern groups, Lions Clubs, Probus Clubs, women's business groups and Rotary organisations to name a few.  The coverage includes:
  • What is Personal History?
  • Why is it important?
  • What are the benefits to someone writing their life story?

_ Many people have the best intentions to sit down with Mum or Dad some day and record those stories, but they often never get around to it until it's too late.

Our talks are free of charge and last for 30-45 minutes.  They are interactive with some delightful exercises for participants designed to jog the memory banks; food for thought and a thoroughly entertaining and enjoyable time for all.

We conclude with tips and suggestions on how someone might start if they wanted to write their own story or that of a loved one.

Mini workshops of a 2-hour duration are also available on request.

Talks given by the Forget Me Not Lifestories members up to end September 2017
