Life After Trauma

In 2021, the PPI team collaborated with Trauma Survivors across the country to develop a visual and text exhibit highlighting their experiences of life post-trauma.

The aim of this exhibit - Life After Trauma - was to give trauma survivors a platform to tell their stories and share their experiences. We hope it humanises some of the statistics surrounding trauma.

By presenting these pieces we hope to call attention to the vital importance of the clinical trials and trauma research undertaken by C4TS and QMUL, how these support improved clinical outcomes and how these wouldn't be possible without the involvement of the patients themselves.

By including some clinical staff and researcher images we also hope our project will allow the impact of this research and clinical work to be seen for what it is - a collaborative effort to give people the best chance possible of surviving traumatic injuries and to go on to lead full, healthy lives.

We would like to thank all contributors for the pieces they have kindly shared and hope the audience takes something away from their experiences.
