Poetry & Pain Relief

In this episode, Kitty Dimbleby, journalist and fellow working mother, talks about how poetry has helped her through some really challenging times, as a child and again now as an adult. Kitty’s resolution to read a poem a day throughout the year has led to her starting to write her own poetry, and then led to subsequent commissions and the likes of Bill Bailey reciting her work! We talk about the impact this has had on her ability to cope with extreme physical illness, and the mental challenges that come with it.
