ZARA PICKEN FOR BULLETIN MAGAZINE

April 6, 2022

Zara Picken was commissioned to create a series of illustrations for Bulletin magazine, the official publication for the Royal College of Speech and Language Therapists (RCSLT). The images were used as a cover/opener and across spreads for a feature about dyphagia and mental health. Dysphagia is the medical term for swallowing difficulties, which can lead to choking. It is prevalent among adults with mental health conditions, especially in psychiatric settings. However, there is a widespread lack of awareness of this and dysphagia needs can be overshadowed by their mental health diagnosis. The article goes on to talk about how speech and language therapists should share information and experiences, to strengthen the networks of therapists working with dysphagia and mental health.
