Episode 1 - A Warm Shoulder: Using History to Empower Young Women - Brighter Futures

This blog was written by Professor Tracey Loughran with Kate Mahoney and Daisy Payling from the Body, Self, and Family project. We recently launched the toolkit – Bodies, Hearts, and Minds: Using the Past to Empower the Future. The toolkit uses historical sources to help young people think differently about their emotional and bodily wellbeing in the present, and their capacity to make change in the future.
