On Saturday, 8th March, we were in Elgin for our Comic Book Workshop, hosted by Magic Torch. A huge thank you to everyone who joined us for this creative and inspiring day!
The morning session was all about learning the art of comic strips and trying our hand at making our own. After lunch, participants had the chance to illustrate their experiences of being affected by a bleeding disorder. These powerful stories were captured by Paul, whose team at Magic Torch will now work their magic to transform them into a comic book!
Once the comic book is ready, we’ll share it on our website and distribute copies to the haemophilia centres. We’ll also have copies available for you to share with family and friends.
A massive thank you to Paul Bristow for leading the workshop and bringing this project to life! Stay tuned for updates—we can’t wait to share the final comic with you all.
The project is funded by Essentia, administered by Foundation Scotland.
