LETTER OF THE MONTH

A heartfelt thank you to Atira Tan for sharing her life and work with us through the words of Elli Jacobs and the photography of Arterium Angledal (‘Women of Value’, August issue). Thank you for sharing your own personal struggles in a bare and honest way, and for showing how to genuinely and sensitively work with people from another culture who have a history of trauma. I am ever-grateful to Atira for her holistic healing approach for others and herself; she truly has a strong, positive and sensitive self. Recognising her own hardships and the need for self-care in the context of working for others is truly inspirational.
