        [logo – Ryder]   1. The project Here’s the TLDR in case you can’t wait / don’t have the time / like to have things said.     #medicineonthewalls (see the PRSC newsletter above) are looking for collaborators in other cities around the world.     We want to write a sentence, which responds to the current pandemic, a word or so per wall per city, all on the same day, and to timelapse (with sound) the process. (Time zones and local stay home policies may complicate things.)   We want to make a statement in… Read More

Call for participants. For those of you in the Graphic Medicine community that I have not had the opportunity to meet or correspond with, my name is John Pollard and I am a psychotherapist based in London in the final stages of a doctoral qualification in counseling psychology. My doctoral thesis is a piece of qualitative research exploring how psychologists and psychotherapists use sequential art in their work. This research aims to create a representation of how sequential art is used in contemporary psychological practice. Rather than attempt to make a case for the potential of sequential art and how it could… Read More

Call for Contributors for “Missing Panels” Zine funded by the University of Leicester – Wellcome Trust ISSF. “Missing Panels” focuses on the impact a lack of representation has on the lives and mental health of members of BME communities, illustrating the need for more equal representation as one of the many strategies required to build a more equal society. Specifically, we are looking for contributors to create a 2 or 4-page full colour comic revolving around questions such as: i) is NHS outreach/campaign material inclusive to BME communities? ii) in what way has your personal experience of accessing health care… Read More

Kirsty Locker writes: ‘Oxleas NHS are looking for an artist to work on a project in conjunction with Swaleside prison. At present, we are in the early stages of an idea aimed at helping the men there get a more meaningful sense of their psychological formulations. We’re aware that many of the men in our services are not terribly comfortable with the written word, and may often prefer material presented in visual formats, such as cartoon strips. We’re interested in commissioning an artist to work alongside some of our prisoners (some of whom are very good artists), to develop some materials that… Read More

Developed by Cardiff University and a group of independent comic creators, All Is Not Well aims to reflect the reality of life as a care giver via a series of short comic strips. Working in care has become one of the most thankless and undervalued jobs in society, yet it is one of the most important.  Our aim is to try and give voice to some of the people involved in the caring of others. The site will host a variety of  strips from creators who have worked as carers or been cared for themselves. These will feature alongside interviews with the creators, as well… Read More

Jonathan Clode, comics writer and former care manager, tells us about leaving his day job to focus on building a new website, dedicated to stories about the British care system.    “Anyone working in comics will know that making a living out of it is hard, and that most of us will need a day job to keep the lights on. For me that job was learning disability support services in Cardiff. It was the best job I could ever hope for and genuinely inspired me. Over time I became a manager, with hopes of making lives better and helping people who had spent… Read More
