£5, but no-one turned away for lack of funds
We want cheap fruit and veg, all year. No problem. The Pickers deliver, but they are paying the price for us: Exploited migrants harvest our oranges, strawberries, olives, blueberries and other fruit and vegetables in Greece, Spain, Italy or Portugal. This is not “somewhere else”. This is Europe.
Doors at 7pm, film screening from 7:30-8:50pm, casual discussion until 9:30pm.

Enabling Active Citizenship since 2019
Curated and hosted by PRSC, School of Activism events are designed to be empowering experiences equipping people with the tools to challenge the status quo, contest power structures and ultimately to change the world.
We learn by doing.
