The newest addition to our PACT quilt to mark the kid's takeover of the writing group
This week the kids from PACT’s writing group share their experiences during the lockdown. Whether it's our food, exercise or how we treat others; our children learn by example so it's great for them to see us sharing our feelings, writing and creating.
We find that sharing our stories can help to offload some of the worries that weigh us down and maybe we can reach others who are experiencing similar struggles.
Keep reading to see their amazing work!

"Thinking about my identity inspired me to create this self-portrait, symbolising my cultural heritage flourishing in a country different to mine." - Danna Michelly
Members of PACT’s writing group have explored their experiences of identity as mothers, as Southwark residents and as Londoners, to try and understand the challenges that we all face. Whether it is through language or ethnicity, we all have a need to understand our place within the world.
