In Our Hands is a ten week programme of workshops facilitated by Lisa Fannen, Omikemi and Clay. The sessions explore radical approaches to health and collective care in the context of movement for liberation and social justice.
The session – aimed specifically at white people – will be run by Tripod.

It will be a space to learn and transform together and look at further anti-racist resources and work.
