Care experienced community invited to participate in National Theatre of Scotland’s listening project

The National Theatre of Scotland has announced a joint listening project, produced in partnership with Who Cares? Scotland and the National Library of Scotland, and has called upon those with care experience to participate.

The project, ‘Caring Scotland’, intends to record the stories of care experienced people in Scotland, with the purpose of engaging with and amplifying the voices of the care experienced community. The recordings will then be stored by the National Library of Scotland and will be available to the public.

The stories will be used by a team of artists as inspiration for an interactive theatre piece which will tour around Scotland in 2026-2027, along with a photographic exhibition of the participants.

Those with care experience, whether current or historical, are encouraged to contact the National Theatre of Scotland by registering their details or emailing caring.scotland@nationaltheatrescotland.com
