A Library of Moments
is a way to collect and share anything we find meaningful
We build a Library of Moments by making reminders of significant moments
We can also draw on these moments
to make guides that help us learn from our experience
and maps to find our way forward
The library of moments from walks in development has
100’s of moments guides and maps
all on the back of a postcard!
Moments are the steps we collect on our journey
the experiences, thoughts and ideas that occur to us
In the Walks in Development Library of Moments
each moment has a question, a reflection and an invitation
to further development
The Library is organised alphabetically based on a key word
that indicates a process (guide) or an action (map) it can help us develop.
Guides help us learn from our experience
They focus on the process of development
A simple way to experience process is to go for a walk:
Choose a moment to consider
Focus in turn on
your own development,
your impact on others
the wider implications of your actions
Record the moments you experience along the way
and allow them to guide you
The Walks in Development Library of Moments includes guides to:
Value your experience
Navigate complexity and change
Find a positive way forward.
Maps are a simple way to organise all our development
They show us how each moment helps shape the people we become
and the communities we live in.
Maps help create the connection
that makes our actions meaningful
Maps can use the same ‘walking’ process as our guides
to help us find our way forward
The Walks in Development Library of Moments includes maps to:
Gather your research
Develop your practice
Make long-term plans
Keeping a journal helps keep us in development
Use a journal to
Record significant moments
Implement and revise your guides and maps
Identify next steps for the day ahead
Our collective journal has daily moments and weekly guides and maps to get us started
It helps us connect our journeys so that every moment
feeds into our long-term development
as individuals, groups and communities
Every moment contributes towards our shared library of moments

“I recommend Arts In Development as a tool for individuals and organisations, for one-to-one and cooperative working; his holistic approach helps untangle knots and brings out strengths with great positivity” (Tara Downs, Miniature Museum )
“David is quietly rebellious and innovative and has created a new model of creative development, based on walks. I’d recommend diving in deep to explore his approach” (Elspeth Penny, 2BU Productions)
Walks in development have been a source of exploration, a way to connect with other creatives and an amazing space for self discovery. David has a unique ability to create warm and welcoming environments that provide equal measures of support and motivation” (Grace Kress, ShelbyXStudios)
