What’s it say?

A Health Literacy Project

Health literacy is defined as the degree to which individuals can obtain, process, and understand basic health information and services needed to make appropriate decisions regarding their health.

A project about communication, health literacy and expression, it produced artwork and postcards that are informed by participants during creative workshops. Anam Beo have been interacting and communicating with people of different abilities since 2005 with over 14,136 workshop attendances and 2136 participants in the growing demographic of the over 55’s.

Artists Rowena Keaveny and Julie Spollen believe in arts accessibility and that a picture combined with type may counteract information overload, allow focus and elegantly tell a story. With support from the Community Foundation for Ireland, we asked in an inclusive and creative manner…

‘What is the best way to clearly communicate necessary information?’

Changing vision, information accessibility and readability for an ageing population; this project highlights the need for outreach materials, for seniors, adults with disabilities, caregivers and potential volunteers.
