Denise Welch
to
appear at L Fest,
orgainsers
confirm
Bosses of L Fest, the UK’s biggest lesbian
festival have announced that Loose
Women star Denise Welch will be appear-
ing at the festival which takes place from
Friday 21 July until Monday 24 July.
Denise will be on hand for the screening
of her film ‘Black Eyed Susan’, which
tells the story about her own personal ex-
periences with depression.
Michelle Partington, founder of charity
Behind The Mask, commented on the
news: “Her award winning film called
'Black Eyed Susan' is about her own per-
sonal experiences with depression. I
won't ruin it anymore but I will say it is a
very raw, honest account which I'm sure
will resonate with so many of you.
“Denise is an Ambassador for MIND but
works passionately at grass roots level to
help those who are not in a position to
help themselves. I'm very much looking
forward to seeing her film again and lis-
tening to her talk. A true ambassador for
mental health awareness. Oh, and it
helps that she is a lovely lady too!”
Denise Welch, and her film, will be on the
L Fest Arts Stage on Sunday 23 July.
