artED: Speaking…From Personal Experience

Artist and writer Helen Shaddock will be in conversation with Dave Chawner, award-winning stand-up and best-selling author, discussing their mission to de-stigmatise eating distress with honesty and humour in their respective memoirs.

This event is part of Joined-up thinking: writing, recovery, art, a series of talks curated by Helen Shaddock and Gráinne Sweeney to celebrate the launch of artED — a digital zine by Helen Shaddock exploring eating distress through art practice.
