Preserving your story for the future.
Every organisation has a history - shaped by people, decisions, and moments over time.
Life Stories for Organisations are recorded conversations designed to document origins, milestones, culture, and lived experience, creating a lasting archive for future generations.
What is a Life Story for Organisations?
Life Stories for Organisations are professionally recorded interviews designed to preserve the human story behind a business, group, or institution.
These recordings capture origins, milestones, decisions, values, and lived experience - creating a clear, lasting record that can be kept as an internal archive or shared as agreed.
Sessions may involve founders, long-serving staff, board members, volunteers, or key voices connected to the organisation’s journey.
How the process works
Planning Conversation
We discuss the organisation’s aims, the people involved, and what story is to be captured.
Recorded Interview
A relaxed, guided conversation recorded on-site or remotely, with care and discretion.
Delivery
A professionally edited recording delivered privately for internal or agreed use.
Recording on-site or remotely
Organisational recordings can take place on location anywhere in Ireland including Northern Ireland, or remotely, depending on what best suits the project.
Based in Galway, I travel nationwide by arrangement. Remote sessions are also available for distributed teams or international organisations.
