- **Event Description**: Francisco de la Mora, Gemma Plum & Zara Slattery explore disability and neurodiversity in comics.

Increasingly, creators are turning to comics to explore experiences of disability, neurodiversity, and physical and mental health that are often misunderstood or underrepresented. From memoir and biography to fiction rooted in lived experience, comics can make visible and tangible aspects of experience that words alone may struggle to convey.Calling upon the powerful true stories behind their work, Francisco de la Mora, Gemma Plum and Zara Slattery will examine how comics can make visible experiences that are often overlooked, opening up conversations about disability, neurodiversity, care and belonging.Chaired by Dr Ernesto Priego (Centre for HCID, City St George's, University of London) the panel will explore how graphic novels can challenge stereotypes, create connections and invite readers to see the world from different perspectives.The venue has step-free access and accessible toilet facilities.
