Abstract
Collective Narrative practices, such as Tree of life and Beads of life groups, have intentions of bringing people together to share their specialist knowledge and build a sense of community. We wanted to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic through making these groups accessible online to young people living with health conditions in order to counter the social isolation and disconnectedness created by the pandemic. This paper discusses our specific online adaptations for both these groups as well as online 'Peer training' events. Young people who have participated in a group are invited to join the project as peer trainers who help facilitate, engage group participants, witness their stories and consult to the project. We have included the voices of two of our peer trainer consultants on their experiences. We also briefly reflect on the recent development of trialling hybrid groups.
