About Jules
Lived experience, turned into purpose
Julian Brown — Jules — is a care-experienced advocate, speaker, podcast creator and storyteller. He knows first-hand how it feels to be talked about rather than talked with, and he has built his work around changing that for others.
Jules contributed to Coram Story's Foundling: Found podcast, exploring real stories of care, the way care-experienced people are seen in the media, and why giving a voice to those who are too often unheard truly matters.
Today he coaches individuals and young people, supports organisations to understand lived experience, and helps people everywhere find the confidence to tell their own story — honestly and on their own terms.
