“I know now that we never get over great losses; we absorb them, and they carve us into different, often kinder, creatures...We tell the story to get them back, to capture the traces of footfalls through the snow.”
― Gail Caldwell, Let's Take the Long Way Home: A Memoir of Friendship

We all have something to say, whoever we are, wherever we are in our lives. Using sensitively and professionally made recordings My Own Words can help you or your family tell and preserve those precious stories. This moment right now is precious. Why not seize the day?

Recordings can be basically anything: a straightforward memoir, a chat about an area of interest, a long term project you’ve always wanted to nail down, a message you’ve always wanted to send to someone. They can include the music or images or both. They could be short or long or perhaps you’d like help to write your story down? Whatever it is, if it’s about telling a story, My Own Words can help you achieve that goal!

Each session is unique and we take our cues from you. Anything goes!

“My Mother was recently diagnosed with Motor Neurone disease, and with this diagnosis came the realisation that we probably had limited time with her. My Own Words gave us the opportunity to create a permanent keepsake that my family and I can cherish in the future.” Sarah
