“Raise the Roof” – with the Naked Dietition in London

March 16, 2019 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm

Lucy is a registered dietitian who worked in the NHS for many years. She wanted … to help her clients  gave them the standard NHS advice… none of it was working. Try as they might …. people still had eating disorders and IBS, still hated their bodies, still had wildly dysfunctional relationships with food…
In this outstanding spoken word piece, Lucy takes us through ….experiences of everyone who has ever been marginalised, stigmatised, patronised and blamed. Her sharp, beautifully honed phrases are shafts of light, illuminating the iniquities at the root of society and the madness of seeing behaviours in isolation, …l instead of examining – and addressing – the political and social factors that so often lie at the heart of our health, or lack of it.’…. The Edinburgh Reporter

The performance will be followed by a Q&A.

Free, but advance bookings essential. Donations invited.
