Announcing our theme for Tenx9 in October 2018 in Belfast. The theme is "Care". 

We are looking for true stories from your own life about care: something you care about; something you thought you cared about but realised you didn't; a time you cared, but someone didn't; a time of living in care; a time of leaving care. 

We are thrilled to have some of our friends from "Voices Of Young People In Care" (VOYPIC). We'll have a few stories from VOYPIC folks, and are looking for other true stories, of all kinds of reflections on Care, too. 

Tenx9 is a storytelling night where 9 people have up to ten minutes each to tell a true story from their own lives. If you have an idea for a story from your own life to tell us, read the editorial guidelinesand then send us your idea via the submissions form. We aren't able to accept essays, or personal reflections, or project proposals or reasons why everyone should become a fruitarian. Just true stories. From your own life. Told live. Amazeballs.
