How it Works
Life in Voices makes it easy to record your parents’ or grandparents’ life stories. Each week, they receive a simple question designed to spark memories. With one click they can record their story in their own voice, creating a growing archive of family history.
52 Weekly Prompts Sent Straight to Their Inbox
Receive Weekly Emails: Every week, the Storyteller receives an easy-to-follow email with a question prompt and a 'Start Recording' button.
Click and Record: They click the link and are taken to a simple recording page. From there, they just press Start Recording and tell their story. They can Pause and Resume anytime, make multiple takes, and choose which ones to submit.
Submit: After recording, they hit "Submit," and their story is instantly saved—no complicated steps.
Recordings: Recordings are then sent to the nominated person/s for listening and downloading after submission. You will also receive a quarterly email summarising the questions and recordings.**
Prefer to keep your stories just for yourself? That’s perfectly fine. You can save your recordings and choose to share them as a gift whenever you wish — simply don’t add any recipients, and all recordings will be sent directly to you.

Record Your Parents’ Life Story in Their Own Voice
Capture your mum, dad or grandparents’ memories through simple weekly voice recordings — preserving their stories for future generations.
Have you ever wanted to know your grandparents' or parents' story but weren’t sure what to ask? Their memories are precious—they tell the story of how they were shaped, how they got to where they are now and the many different phases of life they've lived.
How they tell it is just as important. Did you know that 38% of emotion is conveyed through tone of voice? This means that in a spoken story, the tone of voice is crucial for conveying emotional nuances.
