Welcome to another blog which sees an excellent conference in Wales, a dubious and terrible quality video of the crack-pot 'High-Kick-to-Health' project, an artists commission, and new funding opportunities. What more could you want to start of your week?



Storytelling for Heath 
There is now just over a month until the Storytelling for Heath conference takes place in Swansea on 15th, 16th and 17th June. This major international conference includes workshops, panel discussions, presentations, performances, poetry, music and exhibitions from over 90 international contributors -   it is shaping up to be a really exciting programme! The conference brings together clinicians, healthcare workers, artists, patients, policy makers and others with an interest in the intersection between storytelling and health to showcase the really exciting work already going on in this field and to take forward the debate about how we can all develop our practice.  We really hope we will see you there.  Tickets are available HERE. For more information and to see the full conference programme please visit http://ift.tt/2qGGoab
