On International Workers’ Memorial Day, we remember everyone who has lost their life to work-related illness or injury.

In the UK, 138 people died from fatal workplace injuries last year. Thousands lost their lives to occupational illness.

Safety at work is a right, not a privilege.

If you know someone looking for a @dofe.org Gold experience, why not let them know Greenbelt could be the residential they’re looking for? Applications for 2025 are now open.

Hope
Uncomfortably
Often something we have to make
Ourselves
In the absence
Of genuine paths of escape
Paths forward
We have to assemble it
Ourselves.
Finding hope
In the cuts and cracks
Down the sides of sofa.

It’s not every festival that has its own on-site brewery – but then we’re not every festival. Hops in the Making will sit in our festival village, and keep Greenbelters’ reusable glasses topped up with ale things bright and beautiful. Read on for all the new drinks we’ll serving at the Jesus Arms:

Labour could have repealed the law, but didn't.

There's no chance the PM didn't know these women were being surveiled, or of plans to arrest them.

Highly doubt it was a Met Police idea to target this campaign group.

Government must explain urgently if it was a "mistake" or they are responsible.
