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!
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.

Cafcass Practice Week
I've been asked to cover Cafcass Practice Week for the last few years and it gets better each time!
This image was commissioned in advance of the live work and represents the difficult balance that Cafcass' staff are involved in, between the voices of families and children and the law, and trying in the midst of it all to get it 'right' for the welfare of the vulnerable.
This session was all about supporting the workforce:

Strengths Based Social Care - Illustrations
This was a commission by a local authority in London, it came out of a live event where I drew out people's ideas at the event, and then these were worked up and used in this short booklet to help social workers focus on this way of working, that empowers individuals to have agency and a say in their own futures.

Online Scribing, Healthcare Educators
This summer I was asked to scribe this meeting remotely, so I was working on my Ipad, and the meeting was held online. This was all about educators in teaching hospitals and whether they had the support they needed in order to deliver the training for the next generation of healthcare professionals.
Basically, if there is no protected time (or space) then you end up sitting in a cupboard to join the online meeting and not having a lunch break (it's that bad..)
Radiation Services, The North West
I was asked to create an explainer poster for the radiographers in the North West of England.
The region is struggling to recruit and retain staff, so I'm hoping this assists them explain their vision for their new ways of working.
