Truth Be Told exists for the one

For those who find themselves isolated or lonely for whatever reason.

We believe that sharing stories together, listening, asking questions, dreaming imaginatively, and connecting joyfully, is like welcoming the one to belong with the flock and introducing them to the shepherd.

But we can't do this alone

We’re looking for 99 supporters, 99 side-line cheerers, 99 fellow-flock friends, 99 Parable Patrons to join us for the sake of the one.
In fact, we just so happen to have 99 parable-style stories that our Storytellers share to connect people together week in, week out all over the UK and globally now too.
And so we’re asking for just 99 people to commit to sponsoring a parable, to enable belonging where there was once isolation.

Could you be one of the 99 for the sake of the one?

We are humbly asking, could you commit to giving Truth Be Told £25 a month or more to become a Parable Patron?
