			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Liverpool Community Spirit partnership hosted a storytelling workshop with Ralf Ganza on the 16th of March.  10 members of the Liverpool youth council joined the workshop in which Ralf worked with the young adults to create their own unique story. The aim of the storytelling workshops is to realise how stories develop and how things we hear and read quickly get changed into new different stories. These workshops usually last two hours, within this time Ralf will tell a story and then the group will have a brief discussion about what they just heard. After this they work through provided resources as a group, to gain additional inspiration for their own story, which they will have to perform at the end of the workshop to it&#8217;s participants.</p>
<p>Each workshop has a main focus, in this case Liverpool Community Spirit requested for the main focus to be on Identity.</p>
<p>&#8220;The workshop was fantastic and everyone who attended really enjoyed it. The workshop gave a really good insight into storytelling and how information is interpreted. The content and the resources used really fitted in with the aims of the youth council and gave them the opportunity to explore identity in a very different and creative way.&#8221;   Cressinda Godding, Youth Development Officer</p>
