“Great workshop. I felt seen as a Black African woman. Warm and inclusive space. Loved the inside jokes and cultural comments. Loved hearing and learning about desi culture"

“It was a fantastic opportunity to hear discussions on cultures and how that looks like for that individual. It was enlightening as someone who lives in a predominantly white rural town. FANTASTIC!!"

Audience Member

"An important and insightful conversation. I felt like I learned so much, a really accessible way of giving those a platform who may go unheard"

Audience Member

“It was such a wonderful conversation to listen to. I could have sat + listened for hours. It had humour, heart, authenticity. I felt like I was getting to know the group and getting an insight into who they are, and their unique stories, experiences, etc”

"This is one of the best pieces I have ever seen. It was so honest and genuine and so so prevalent. I would have loved for the conversation to have carried on for longer. I have come away from it feeling inspired, having learnt something (multiple things!) new and recognise how much more I have to learn!"
