Celebrating the extraordinary elements of ordinary lives

We are delighted to launch a collection of stories which celebrates the lives of women, past and present published through a collaboration between DCU’s Age-Friendly University and Silver Thread,  which specialises in helping people share their stories through life-writing and storytelling workshops and classes.

The book celebrates the lives of ordinary women, past and present who had an impact on their community and pays tribute to their hard-work, determination, intelligence, spirit and strength of character.

The collection of deeply personal stories are written by staff and students of DCU and participants of Age-Friendly and Silver Thread activities.
