SUMMARY:The Story Chair
DESCRIPTION:Watch this short film about the creation and development of the Story Chair. \n \nThe Story Chair was designed with women in touch with the criminal justice system in collaboration with charity Changing Lives\, Northumbria University and Newcastle Cathedral\, supported by the North East Probation Service and The British Academy. \nAs part of the project\, over 50 individuals from Newcastle\, Ashington\, North Tyneside\, and Sunderland participated in eight weeks of workshops\, honing storytelling and craft skills to illustrate their experiences – many marked by domestic violence and trauma. \nThe Cathedral’s involvement in the development of the chair came about through the Cathedral Lantern Project (formerly the Lantern Initiative)\, which takes inspiration from our iconic Lantern Tower and strives to be a beacon of light for those experiencing dark or difficult times. The Revd Jon Canessa explained\, “We wanted to ensure these women’s inspiring\, humbling and powerful stories are celebrated and heard.” \nTogether\, the women wrote complex\, emotionally difficult\, funny\, and\, most importantly\, real-life stories. The Story Chair\, crafted by Nick James from James Design\, is an abstract representation of the twists and turns of the women’s lives\, the need for a solid base and the lightness once stories have been shared\, representing the unique realities the women experienced\, while highlighting the interweaving nature of shared experience. \nFind out more about the Cathedral Lantern Project. \nHave Your Say on Cathedral Events \n \n

SUMMARY:Access: Newcastle Cathedral (Exhibition)
DESCRIPTION:Speaking Up Together Beyond Boundaries is a self-advocacy group led by adults with learning disabilities and autistic people from the local area. \nThe group first connected with Newcastle Cathedral in 2022 through a community singing group. Since then\, they’ve become regular visitors\, meeting at Café 16 in the Cathedral Refectory and leading creative workshops. \nWith support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund\, they developed a project focused on creating accessible workshops and resources. \nThey are now working on further accessible resources for neurodiverse visitors as part of the Cathedral Lantern Project\, which aims to be a beacon for people navigating difficult circumstances in life. \nThis exhibition celebrates the group’s remarkable creativity\, showcasing a selection of inspiring artwork and resources they have created. \n\n\n\n\nThe Speaking Up Together group is offering FREE accessible heritage tours for groups in March and April 2025\, subject to availability. \nIf you’re interested in learning more\, please contact Joanne at Speaking Up Together.
