We publish writing from the edge. We aim to encourage people who identify as survivors to participate in the arts by creating, publishing and performing their own work.
Writing is a powerful tool.
It is therapeutic and it can change society. We work to enable survivors to find their own unique voice, and to challenge the stigma attached to mental health problems by society. A Survivor is a person with current or past experience of psychiatric hospitals, users of tranquillisers and other medication, users of counselling and therapy services, survivors of child, physical, sexual and racial abuse, survivors of drug or alcohol addiction, and other survivors who empathise with our experience including disabled people.
