Illustration of a live event - in advance!

This is the 10th year I've done illustrations for the annual 'My Voice Matters' event for Merton Centre for Independent Living. https://www.mertoncil.org.uk/

This time they've given me the main points in advance and they are going to print this as an A3 poster to give to attendees. I think it's probably the first time I've been asked to draw out a live event in advance, but it does take the pressure off!

If you've never heard of the 'Social Model of Disability' it's basically the built environment and lack of adjustments that makes it difficult for people who live with a disability to live as they'd like to. 

The 12 pillars at the bottom of the graphic outlines what needs to be in place to support people in their day to day living.
