If you have ever wanted to bottle up your parent’s or older family member’s memories and keep them safe forever, we have just the Christmas gift for you.
YourStory offers just this. The brand has developed a Memory Keepsake Generator that allows our loved ones to share their memories which then become immortalised in a book that can be passed down for generations.
So, if you’re stuck for what to get your parents, or your siblings, this Christmas, this is the perfect family Christmas gift idea.
YourStory was launched in the UK last year with the view of developing and offering heirloom autobiographies for family members at an affordable price.
Its innovative and easy-to-use platform allows loved ones to answer questions and share stories at their own pace, and in the comfort of their own home. These memories are then transformed into a hardbound book that will take pride of place under the Christmas tree this festive season.
The question prompts are emailed over, and your parents can work through them, or you can help them do so. There is also the option to add photos to make the book even more meaningful.
The brand itself was formed by a brother-sister duo who had a desire to keep their family’s memories alive after their dad passed away when they were young, and their grandmother faced a battle with Alzheimer’s.
This Christmas, YourStory is offering a free extra copy of the book, worth £50, when you purchase one. The extra copy will be added to the basket at the point of purchase. This means you’ll have one book to give as a gift, and one to keep for yourself. Win-win.
