knot at home project is the result of a series of community projects run by BIG hART, a non profit organisation. The projects were designed to give people who often go unheard a chance to tell their stories. From 1998 to 2004 over 500 young people and their families were asked to tell stories about when they felt “not at home”. The interactive stories will be launched in April 2006. Please email us if you would like us to send you the preview link.
