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
