    "Free webinar 24th May 1-3pm BST

    This webinar brings together academics and activists working in relation to disbelief and disregard in medicine, chronic illness and disability. It will focus in paticular on the relationship between disbelief/disregard and energy, understood in two ways: first in relation to chronic illness/disability that involves energy limitation, and secondly in relation to the ways in which activism and advocacy in relation to medicine, chronic illness and disability takes, and depletes, energy.

    Organised by: Dr Bethan Evans, Dr. Lioba Hirsch and Dr Morag Rose (University of Liverpool), Catherine Hale and Alison Allam (Chronic Illness Inclusion), Dr Ana Bê Peirera (Liverpool Hope University).

    Speakers include (in addition to the organisers): Brianne Benness (No End in Sight), Dzifa Afonu (Healing Justice London), Leonora Gunn (University of Leeds and Leeds Disabled People’s Organisation), Katherine Cheston (Durham University), Aaliyah Shaikh (City University, London), Dr Emma Sheppard (Coventry University), Aleyah Babb-Benjamin (National Voices), Jenny Ceolta-Smith (Long Covid Support)."
