Comment: Is ‘lived experience’ a change-maker or ball and chain?

Kenny Murray

2021

Kenneth Murray on the stigma associated with 'lived experience'.

Children and young people in social care, and those who have left, are often subject to stigmatisation and discrimination. Being stigmatised and discriminated against can impact negatively on mental health and wellbeing not only during the care experience but often for many years after too. The project aims to contribute towards changing community attitudes towards care experienced people as a group. See glossary HERE
