The First Aid Kit for the Mind
'The First Aid Kit For The Mind' is the result of a collaboration between Julia Darling, Emma Holliday and Jay Smart. A box of items to inspire and entertain, to ensure you always have a little piece of 'home' with you, that you're never without a postcard to write, a toy to remind you and ideas to mull over. The start of a collection, a mini exhibition, something special and unique; this is a kit you can pick up and take with you on your journey. Containing sixteen postcards (eleven with poems), the 'Rebellious Stamp' and stamp pad, as well as the individually selected items in each box.
First Aid Kits cost £30.00 and are available at selected events and exhibitions, as well as by post. (£3.00 pp)
The Rebellious Stamp Exhibition
'The Rebellious Stamp' is an exhibition of sixteen poems and paintings to transform hospital corridors and waiting rooms.
“ Poetry should be part of every modern hospital, not just as something to keep patients amused. It’s a powerful force, which can help us through the darkest times. I would like to see more poetry books in hospital waiting rooms, more poems on the walls, more training in creative writing for doctors, and more poems printed on primary care leaflets.”

The images of poems and paintings can be bought as a framed set, framed individually or as posters. Please email for information and examples of art work.
