Jigsaw

2009-07-27T19:40:00.000+01:00

A piece of artwork created collaboratively by staff at Sandwell’s expanding Eating Disorder Service. The idea for the jigsaw evolved during team-building exercises and is created from pewter. Each jigsaw piece is symbolic of an aspect of eating disorder; put together the piece represents the recovery process. The team hopes to use the artefact for health promotion and educational purposes.
