Further Funding for Unmasking Pain

Thanks to Balbir Singh Dance Company (BSDC) and our ongoing collaboration, the Arts Council England has continued National Portfolio Organisations funding for the next three years. Durham University's WRIHW Pain Challenge Academy is delighted to develop the very successful partnership established through ACE funded Unmasking Pain project with BSDC and other partners.

The Unmasking Pain project brings together people living with pain, pain specialists and artists to take part in sessions that use creative approaches to identify the shared challenges of living with pain and support people to find new ways to articulate their feelings and experiences. Some of the artists also live with persistent pain. You will work with the artists who will listen, document and interpret pain and ultimately co-create ways to tell your pain story.
