Chrisann Jarrett - ChangeMaker Chat - We Belong

Its easy to think that the problems in our lives are all our fault. But some of the time - indeed much of the time - our problems also come from public life.

That is Chrisann Jarrett's journey . When the UK's Home Office told her that she would not be treated as a UK citizen, even though she had lived there for most of her life - she felt like it was her problem. But as she talked with others she began to reframe her experience and see that it was the Home Office who had the problem and that she and others, together, could do something about it.

This is the story of We Belong. The organisation that Chrisann and others have built - and some of the stories of the remarkable change they have made.
