In early October the mirrorbox was taken to Spike Island in Bristol for three days of testing.
So many people have left messages for places that are important to them, we wanted to make sure everything worked before the mirrorbox starts its journey to message locations across the UK next year.
With permission from participants to use their messages away from their message locations, a variety of people came along to help test the experience – from artists to occupational therapists, mechanics to people who have friends and family living with M.E. and Long Covid.
It was really wonderful to see peopleโs response to the mirrorbox and messages.
“It felt special to be able to listen to someoneโs story“
โInspiring and very moving. This is such a fabulous idea.โ
โA very creative and inspiring way to further the knowledge of M.E. and Long Covid to others.โ
We are currently fundraising to take it to message locations across the UK next year. If you are interested in supporting the project please get in touch.
