Abstract
In 2012 the Social Policy Research Unit at the University of York launched
the first study of its kind to investigate life story work from first principles.
We asked:
What is life story work?
What is considered to be good practice in life story work in
dementia care?
How do service providers and family carers use life story work?
Can life story work be evaluated in real world care settings?
What are the costs of doing life story work as part of everyday care?
