We will kick off with the basics: what pica means, how to say it and why it can help to name what’s going on. Families often tell us they worry that when their relative transitions from the family home, their concerns about pica won’t be taken seriously or that other people will misunderstand the risks. So the panel talk about how recognising pica can support clearer planning, safer support and conversations with services.


Our panel of experts is:

Viv Cooper – family carer with lived experience of pica

Kate Sanger – family carer with lived experience of pica

Linda Hume – Registered Nurse for People with Learning Disabilities

Peter Baker – Senior Lecturer, Tizard Centre, University of Kent
