West London Story Forums Summaries: Lost Stories Festival (18th Feb, Compass Theatre)
Leader: George Mogg

Key points of discussion:
We discussed the concept of an umbrella festival, that delivers several different projects which reveal and share stories that are in danger of being lost, overlooked or marginalised. These stories might be connected to unusual spaces and places, people with histories, stories from the past and stories connected to travel and movement. Unusual ways of travelling between components in the festival, e.g. a special bus or via waterways were also discussed.
Key Actions
Several individuals, from various backgrounds are going to write a project proposal (1 or 2 paragraphs), responding to the concept of lost stories, and George has offered to collate a document which includes these paragraphs, for someone else from the discussion group to present as a bursary bid.
