More about this magazine
Published out of Headway East, a Hackney-based charity that works with people affected by brain injury, Matter magazine combines essays, art, short stories and editorials by the centre’s members, staff and volunteers. People with disabilities are often talked about the media, but these are perspectives from individuals who actually experience illnesses in their day-to-day lives.
In this issue:
- Lunch reviews from the centre’s daily shared lunches
- Drawing together: spending time in the art room
- A short story about Nan, the flawless diver
- Aspects of British life by a Lithuanian living in London
- Who are you now? Brain injury survivors 10 years on
- A photographic look at friendships formed at Headway East London
