Green Flower Group on Wednesday

On Wednesday, the Green Flower Group spent the day at Flacq disabled school. We were met by a large group of people from the center plus several of our friends that we had met on Monday. We spent the day telling stories and exchanging stories.

• Determination to see their way through the challenges that they faced.

• Determination to overcome their fear in the face of these challenges.

Reflections on the SALT visit for the day.

• The visitors were surprised and overwhelmed by the number of people at the centre. It took the facilitators some time to create a process to deal with the 25 people that we met on arrival.

• There was a lot of discomfort in writing stories.

• Things were transformed when we moved to recording almost all of the stories

• The dynamic between the visitors and the community was generally very good. At times, the visitors merged into the community.

• The community took great pride in sharing their stories. You could see that the stories were indeed a source of inspiration to the community.

• All of us left with an insight into the power of stories to inspire people.
