International Women’s Day
For over a Century, women around the world have been celebrating International Women’s Day — a global movement advocating for to the rights of women, to vote, be trained, educated, hold parliment and end discrimination, injustice and ineqality once and for all.
Random Acts of Kindness Day
For Random Acts of Kindness Day, we are thinking about our friend and Human Librarian, Arthur, whose acts of kindness are legendary in Bootle and Waterloo. Arthur has been really ill the last couple of months but we hear he is on the mend, we’re looking forward to seeing him again when he’s better.
Remedies for Resistance – Final call for Remedies
Do we know how to care for ourselves and each other? What is collective care? How do we practice collective care within our communities? Do we have medical knowledge? Do we have our own remedies? Have these passed along through family, kinship or through networks? How do we know or find about them? Who do we share them with and how?
Freshly Cut Grass — Afternoon
Take a step back from what you are doing, relax, and breathe for a little while. Designed to help you de-stress, we are so delighted to share the afternoon version of Frances Disley’s audio-guided imaginary journeys with you. Whether you are having a really busy day or not doing anything at all, take a moment to unwind in nature — without moving anywhere.
Freshly Cut Grass – Morning journey
Escape from it all for a little while and come on a journey through nature —without leaving the house. This is the first resource in a series of three, designed by artist Frances Disley to help you relax in the morning before you start your day.
Human Libraries Autumn Programme
As the days start to feel a little shorter and the weather a little cooler, we are pleased to share our Autumn-Winter season programme of creative events and activities to help us to re-connect and keep spirits lifted, as we start to be able to come together again. With a theme of wellbeing, the programme includes a mixture of online sessions and activities that can be enjoyed at home, walks and talks and outdoor meet-ups.
