The life story app that enables genuine, person-centered care to those in residential and domiciliary settings
Person-centred care starts with their story
The life story app that enables genuine, person-centred care in residential and domiciliary settings, for older people, in dementia day centres, and for children and young adults too.
Every person’s story, in one place
The life story app that supports high-quality, person-centred care across residential homes, domiciliary services, dementia day centres and services for children and young adults. The photos, the videos, the music, the places and the people, with the stories behind them, all sorted into books your team can open on a phone, tablet or laptop, and you choose who can see and add to them.

Children and young adults
A life story is not only about looking back. For children and young adults who are autistic, have ADHD or a learning disability, LifeLibrary is a place to capture who they are right now: what they love, what calms them, what they find hard and how they like to communicate, so every carer starts from the same page.
All about them, kept up to date
Likes, dislikes, routines, sensory needs and what helps on a difficult day, shown with photos and videos rather than pages of notes.
The same approach on every shift
New, bank and agency staff can get to know a young person before they meet them, which means fewer surprises for everyone.
Moves and transitions made easier
Between placements, schools and short breaks, or from children's to adult services, their story goes with them.
Their own voice
Young people can help build their library with the photos, videos and achievements they are proud of.
Families kept close
Parents and carers at home see the moments shared and add their own, so home and care stay joined up.
Games built around their passions
Quizzes, jigsaws and pairs made from their own photos and interests, whether that is trains, football or their favourite film.
For children's homes, residential special schools, short breaks and respite, supported living and day services.
Now in dementia day centres
People often come to a day centre for a few hours at a time, and the staff and volunteers can change from one visit to the next. With LifeLibrary, anyone can pick up a person's story in moments, and the family at home can see the good moments from the day.
Something to talk about from the moment they arrive
Group activities built around shared interests
Games made from their own life, for one-to-one or group time
Families see photos from the day and add memories from home
Personal activities in minutes
Each person's life story and hobbies become their own set of games, ready for one-to-one time or a group session, with no preparation needed.
Because every game is built around the things they know and love, it plays to what people can do and enjoy, and gives carers and families a natural way to spend time together.
