This week, three dynamic Canadian 1st Nation women activists are mobilising people across the UK to campaign against finance institutions such as RBS investing in the devastating Tar Sands project. They've already made the Financial Times headlines, and have held a meeting in the House of Lords... RBS and UK capital are right up there on their hit list.

Come and discuss finance, climate change, environmental justice and campaign strategy with leading researchers & campaigners Mel Evans and Hannah Schling (PLATFORM), Sarah Sexton (The Corner House), Rosa Curling (Leigh Day Solicitors) on the strategies, analysis and impacts of their very successful campaign to stigmatise, delegitimise, and arrest the march of the self-styled "Oil and Gas Bank"... read full story / add a comment

The workshop got off to a bit of a late start due to the rain having caused a build up of traffic in Bristol city centre. Whilst the parents dried off and enjoyed a cup of warm tea the children explored the workshop space – discovered an old trap door, practiced their boxing skills on a couple of punch bags that we have hanging up, and then let loose on a drum kit, which I’m sure could be heard for miles! Goga took photo’s of the children posing on the drum kit and will email these of to them so that the can remember their time at Dyslexic Brian’s office.

The workshop started with Antonio giving an overview of the Parent as Dyslexia Support Coach Programme and also a description of the day’s workshop. Then he explained a bit about his past and how he had struggled all of his life with dyslexia until he overcame it when he was 38 years old.

Everyone in the group, including the children, then sketched out their perception of dyslexia – these were shared with the group followed by a very interesting discussion where everyone elaborated further on they way they see dyslexia. read full story / add a comment
