Still catching my breath from this amazing creative consultation project in Blackwell Parish with the talented @BethFooSheldon @Kathrynthehanke ... 🫖 you brought the sunshine and smiles gals, teased out people’s hopes & ideas for the community .. gorgeous to watch you in action
So good to be out and about meeting the #community this week. We’ve met 17 groups, been hosted in 2 back gardens, 1 front drive, 1 green space +3 schools. Each one felt like an absolute privilege to be able to crank up the giggles and chats🙏 ta @Platform_Thrty1 #GreaterCreative

Enjoying the #DCHC2021 today with @JunctionArtsUK .. & here’s my scrawled data selfie made from thinking about a nostalgic fixed local exhibition I’ve visited since being a kiddo. Lovely activity 🙌
Is there any better way to brew up ideas with the community than with the @maisonfoo Tea Ladies? We think not @Platform_Thrty1 ! Amazing first day of 3 had with @WesthousesP & Newton Residents in Blackwell Parish for #greatercreative project thank you @TNLComFund 🙌

Great to be cranking up the street theatre antics again. We are front doorstepping and playgrounding this May with @JodesPlatform31 and @SamPlatform31 get ya ‘kettle on Blackwell, we’ll be knocking on!
Second time this week I’ve been back in Tea lady mode for @maisonfoo ! Feels so good to step into my eccentric self, it’s like therapy and escapism all in one. If you have chance today get your silly game on I promise you will feel 100 times better for it!
