Privileged to be at the launch of this exhibition celebrating the city's anti racism pioneers - many familiar to our building's community over the decades. Particularly in the face of sickeningly regressive racism from Robert Jenrick & others this week, this is affirming & well worth coming to see.

We did it! We passed our Share Offer target and raised the funds we need to decarbonise the Warehouse. Thank you to all who invested or shared and to @cooperativesuk.bsky.social for match funding. The Share Offer is still open until noon on Friday if you planned to invest & didn't get round to it.

Got savings locked up in big banks? Why not invest some in our Share Offer to retrofit the @birminghamfoe.bsky.social Warehouse instead? We'll never invest in fossil fuel or arms companies. Share offer is only open for another three days, so don't miss out! Link in bio.

Opposing far right protesters in Birmingham.

They chose the steps of St Martin-in-the-Bull Ring for their ‘strike’, a church that is renowned for the support and sanctuary it offers to refugees (and is a participant in the Church of England’s Net Zero Programme).

This Pride, consider taking pride in DIY spaces like ours and investing in our share offer to retrofit our building. Link in bio

Just ONE week left to invest in our Community Share Offer to retrofit the Warehouse. We're nearly there, thanks to the generosity of our community, but we still need to raise £6000 to meet our target. We'd really appreciate shares to keep getting the word out. Link in bio to invest. ☺️

9 days left in our Share Offer and we've just crossed £40,00 in investment, thank you to everyone who has invested or shared! We still need £6,000 to reach our target, which will enable us to fit more solar panels and fix draughty windows. Looking forward to meeting new members at our upcoming AGM
