Social change designer Kerry Tottingham lives with chronic pain but hates the idea of a limited life. So, with her sister-led company A Brilliant Thing CIC, she created Healing-Centred Design and uses it everyday to dismantle inequality and channel positive power, enabling everyone to do brilliant things.
'In a world that is increasingly individualistic it can be challenging to access a sense of safety and connection. This book creates a wonderfully accessible and reassuring framework that is truly inspiring, compassionate and much needed.' - Dr Sula Windgassen PhD MSc, Health Psychologist and Director of Mind Body Blossom Clinical Health Psychology practice
