Empathy Museum

We are so excited to also be collaborating with the brilliant team at Empathy Museum again, offering you the chance to walk a mile in the shoes of someone who has experienced forced displacement, while listening to their story (or you can listen from the comfort of the store).

A Mile in My Shoes Refugees is opening as part of @chooselove Department Store on Friday 29th November at 245 Regent Street, London. Open daily 12.00 - 8.00pm - Come down for alternative gifts and storytelling…

A Mile in My Shoes Make Health Equal at #Lab24 with ⁦@health_equals⁩ and @WesStreeting with stories and shoes highlighting health inequality in the UK. #MakeHealthEqual #AMileInMyShoes

Nurses wellbeing is so important 💞 We love this idea of Circles: a wellbeing space for nurses to pause, reflect and tune in. Please help spread the word 🙏 circles.empathymuseum.com @empathymuseum @EM_HealthPsych

How do we create space to pause, reflect & restore in our busy healthcare lives? Meet Circles, a fantastic initiative from @empathymuseum @EM_HealthPsych @AbbyHollick Designed for nurses, & adapting to include all of us. Scalable, deliverable, necessary. circles.empathymuseum.com
