What is a living library?

A living libra ry is based on the concept that the &lsquo\;books&rsquo\; are people and i nstead of reading\, you listen to their real life stories. We provide a re laxed\, non-judgmental environment where people can feel empowered and are given the opportunity to meet and speak to people about a topic that we o ften shy away from talking about &ndash\; mental health.

The great thing about our living library is that you as readers\, can have conversa tions with people who have real life experiences and you can ask questions along the way. Our books have inspirational stories to tell about their u nique mental health journey. They are all passionate about raising awarene ss and increasing knowledge\, in the hope to help others.

Come alo ng to hear the raw\, honest and relatable stories to better understand the life experiences of others\, and to possibly challenge some of your own a ssumptions. Learn more about mental health and support our books who have generously given up their time to spread awareness and hope.
