Today is International Repair Day, celebrating the power of repair to build communities, reduce waste and teach new skills. We’re looking back on the fantastic weekend of activities we organised at the end of #SecondHandSeptember to coincide with our #RepairCafe. We celebrated repair as resistance.

Our Arts and Wellbeing Director, Beccy, represented us at the #LoveTowerHamlets event last night. Thanks, @towerhamletsnow.bsky.social! Great to celebrate everything that makes LBTH unique and all while taking in the surroundings of the Tower of London. Great to hear from local resident, Brenda!

Our Arts and Wellbeing Director, Beccy, enjoyed contributing to @towerhamletsnow.bsky.social co-production workshop yesterday to support the creation of the Long-Term Strategic Vision for the borough. Great to be with private, public and voluntary sector colleagues and residents to shape the plan.

We've started a blog to give our community more insight into what we do and how and why we do it. If you've got a cuppa and a few mins, why don't you have a read: www.stmargaretshouse.org.uk/blog/a-new-c...

Huge thanks to the @volunteeringuk.bsky.social team from Aviva for painting part of our chapel and lots of garden furniture for the Gallery Cafe and helping with sorting at our Ayoka charity shop: you've made a big difference! There's no doubt this was also a #CreativityAndWellbeingWeek activity!

To celebrate #CreatvityandWellbeingWeek we are launching a case study exploring the development of a #creativehealth strategy at a new systems health building in Havering, NEL London. Read more here: bit.ly/3ZqRYVi

We're delighted Enza won the prize draw of our Community Survey! Enza takes part in our weekly Woodwork for Wellbeing sessions. We're grateful to each and every one of our community who filled in the survey, telling us what we do well and what we could do better. #ListenAndLearn #CommunityMatters

We had a great time celebrating #SocialPrescribingDay early yesterday, working alongside partners, @lahartshealth.bsky.social to support Rosetta Arts in the development of a #CreativeHealth Alliance for Newham. Thanks to @artscouncilengland.bsky.social for funding us to do this work.

Starting the day cycling the Thames Path was a perfect warm-up for Cultural Social Prescribing discussions with Rosetta Arts and @lahartshealth.bsky.social this morning... Our Arts and Wellbeing Director, Beccy, is looking forward to leading discussions about a Creative Health Alliance in Newham.

Today's the day! Looking forward to this and the follow-up from it... Great to see the development of our @artscouncilengland.bsky.social funded work supporting Newham orgs to take creative health and social prescribing to the next level. See you in a few hours!

What our Arts and Wellbeing Director said! Twitter/X is no longer a place we want to be. We're moving away from the toxicity and towards healthier discussion and interaction here. #TwitterExodus

Such a pleasure to be with peers today at @artscentres.bsky.social network mtg. Great to share, support and collaborate. Our co-CEOs and now our Chair are benefitting so much from the peer learning opps. Thank you so much, FAC!
