Join this event in the beautiful Cowdray Hall at the Royal College of Nursing for a very special night of poetry and conversation. Hear the first performance of a new work by spoken word artist and nurse Molly Case, inspired by research on children and young people’s experiences of cancer and sickle cell disease since 1945; join researchers and nurses in discussion about childhood illness and care, past and present; and take in a brand-new exhibition on the history of children’s nursing.
The poetry and talks will be live-streamed. When booking, you will see there are two ticket types to choose from: 'In person' or 'Online'.
Please note that this event will include discussion of illness and bereavement.
