Which support?

My main purpose is to make the invisible visible: the talents, stories, passion and majesty of all the people that I meet.  I do this under the umbrella of Lightseekers for community arts projects and start-ups, Transition Leicester for environmental projects, Leicester Fixers for projects supporting repair. Depending on the focus of your project, I'll support you through planning and project delivery (Inc. Research, event management, curation, marketing and communication and more) - mentorship, training and consultancy as well as bid writing and fundraising + advertising opportunities. I have several packages for support with a first hour discussing your vision and what you are looking to achieve for free. Contact me via social media  and send me your email address with an idea of the projects you are looking to develop. I will then send you a list of all the offerings accordingly.

She jokes that she would like to know a bit more the chubby shy one to see if she can rub on her. What is your inconscious mind trying to tell you?

Then why now, with all the world at stake, do so many people retreat into these entirely personal “solutions”? Why are these “solutions” not sufficient? But most importantly, what can be done instead to actually stop the murder of the planet? The description of the video 'Forget Short Showers' just reminded me how insane I am and how a lot of people are too ( Inside Voice: just look around you for a minute, they are all craaayyy, they don't want to admit it, what abt you?) The insanity can be summarised into keeping ourselves busy with personal endeavour to tackle climate change (embracing simple eco-living...
