At Anglicare Southern Queensland, we believe every life is made up of stories worth sharing. That’s why we have a program dedicated to helping residents compile their favourite memories and milestones in one place.
Coordinated through our Spiritual and Pastoral Care team, our Biography Program creates an opportunity for residents to document their unique experiences from childhood memories to life-changing moments. Through one-on-one sessions with volunteers, residents have a personalised biography that their families can treasure for years to come.
Not only does the program create an opportunity to capture cherished memories, but it initiates the perfect environment for new connections to be made.
“The biography is a wonderful outcome of the project, but I think the more important part is the process. By listening to and reflecting on the story of their lives, we are valuing the individual and building a deep connection.” – Felicity Dougherty, Spiritual and Pastoral Care Coordinator Gold Coast
We’re honoured to help preserve these stories and celebrate the incredible lives of our residents.
