Hello Friends,
Well, we all had a fab time at Knockengorroch festival! Programme selling, dog catching, night watching, survey taking and ceilidh dancing! Sadly, one Ceilidh related accident has led to a previously able-bodied Persia being more of a hoppy Persia, but we think she enjoyed it all the same. One group of GXV’s cooked non-stop for more than 5 hours to create a kichuri feast for festival VIPs, battling with one hob and practically no work space. Clearly Bangla style picnics in Bangladeshi flood plains were good preparation! (Photos to follow…)
You may already know, but this Saturday is UN World Environment Day, and we’re all hopping (in solidarity with Persia) down to Greenworks to lend a greenhand for our Environment CAD. The team will be overhauling the young charity’s work yard and helping to build new planters for Leith Festival Gala Day on Saturday 12th June. If you’re in Edinburgh this weekend then come join the green festivities at Graham Street. We would love to see you!
Clare xx
