Biographers - Miigen

A friendly voice helping you capture memories

Our Miigen biographers create and manage memory capture groups
they are also available to hire to help families

As a Miigen Biographer your role is to create and manage Miigen Groups on subjects important to our community, such as sports, local events, music etc. You will help drive user enagement and user interaction.

Everyone has a personal story to tell. We love chatting about our family, our team and our endevours. Imagine if there is no one to listen or engage with to share your memories. Our Miigen Groups as are a safe space for older adults to share their stories with their peers.

Our Biographers are the host for the group chat - they will manage who attends and the formate on how the Mii-CALL conversation runs. Some Mii-CALLs will have a guest speaker appropriate to the group subject - for example a famous footballer or Oylmpian.

Success will be a collection of video clips with the Mii-CALL attendees capturing their memories of the occassion or event being discussed. By caputuring shared memories our Biographers will be helping increase the cognative abilities of the attendees and creating or rekindling friendships.

We have over 3 million people in the UK who feel alone over 40% of the time. Each person has a story to tell. As a Miigen Biographer you are helping people share their story to feel connected to society.

The Miigen Biographer programme is ideal for community leaders who are active in their community, be it arranging coffee mornings or organising activity events for older adults.

We bring an activity that is both life affirming and impactful within your community. By encouraging your older adults to tell the story of their life and their community; that at the moment is held captive in a shoebox in the loft gathering dust, we reconnect the person with their earlier life and share with others.

One of Miigen's core aims is to help reduce loneliness in our older adults. We feel that no older adult should sit at home alone when they have memories to share.

By building community groups and using Mii-CALL you can make an instant impact in the lives of the vulernable and disconnected people in your community. At the same time you can earn money as a paid Miigen Biographer helping families to build their Digital Time Capsule by engaging with their elderly family members via Mii-CALL to capture the story of their lives.

So if you have free time and would like to join our Global "Army" of Miigen Biographers and be involved in a Social Impact project that aims to extend the working memory of our older adults - we would love to have you help.

Our elderly family members are the custodians of our family history, they are the link between the present and the past. Our Biographers will work with your family members to capture the stories through Video Convesations, which are then stored in your Family Digital Time Capsule.

For generations sharing stories has been the method we learned about our past. Be it the elder in the village or the local social historian - they all had stories that when shared made us sit up and listen. The sound of their words engaged us and helped trigger our own memories of the event or time. These words made us happy and safe.

Our older adults want to tell these stories. Our Biographers role is to capture information and memories that the family can enjoy for generations to come and for the older adults to revisit in later life to remind then of the life they have had.
