The lack of physical contact can be very challenging for many during the Covid Isolations. To help the older generation, who might have to stay isolated for longer, feel more socially connected we facilitate tools to create meaningful connection at a distance.

Research shows that it’s not the number of interactions that makes a person feel connected to others, rather it’s the quality of a conversation.
To help create more meaningful conversations, we have created a set of tools that can be used to encourage someone to share a story from their life.
Our tools can be used within age care facilities who want to help their residents experience a deeper connection to others or by family members looking for ways to engage with someone even when physical contact might not be an option.
We can provide you with a variety of tools to encourage your residents to share stories from their lives with each other or family members.
Contact us for more information.
Want to engage your family member in a more meaningful conversation?
We offer tools to help you ask your family member share stories from their past.
The Coversational Card Deck is an appreciated and interactive way to share memories with each other.
Print the document and cut it in four pieces per sheet. Place the cards in a deck.
To create a more meaningful conversation, place a card on the table and start sharing your stories.
This sheet includes a series of questions prompting an older person to share stories from their lives.
You just pick a question that interest you and to start a more meaningful conversation today.
Contact storiestocherishteam@gmail.com to tell us about your experience using the tools or to get more information.
In this video you'll learn more about us and the tools we have developed.
We will also briefly introduce you to the concept Behaviour Design, as taught by BJ Fogg, which has highly influenced our process and design.
