Julie Skentelbery and James Churchfield

Available for over a year

Cornish children are reading stories to older residents in self isolation. The Silver Stories project existed before Covid-19 and lockdown. Now, more stories are being read thanks to smart phones as a perfect way of sharing words. Betty, Jo and Jasmine have been telling the 麻豆社's Andrea Ormsby how this simple, clever idea is coming into its own.
