In our latest episode of Care Fully Considered we speak to Georgie Steele, a parent carer, storyteller, and theatre performer.
We discuss the importance of storytelling and why her theatre show is inspired by a famous children's tale to highlight the ridiculousness of the social care system. We also talk about the importance of caring with a (usually dark) sense of humour, the difference between helpful help and unhelpful help, and the crucial need for the people we care for to have their own voices heard.
