We've teamed up with the Cabasa, delivering creative writing and storytelling workshops in 3 local Care Homes in Tameside so we can connect with elder members of our community, gather stories, ideas, and images around the theme of ‘hope'. Cabasa then took those stories to their in-house artists and translated them into large-scale hand painted silk flags expressing the experiences of elder residents who've been acutely isolated through the pandemic. These flags will be toured to the grounds of the care homes in the summer as beautiful, powerful, site-specific installations which highlight the creativity and resilience in our communities.

On the 8th July 2018, around 70 people gathered in The Rivals Cafe at the Royal Exchange Theatre to hear the budding writers behind My Voice In The City perform their pieces. Thank you to everybody involved, including Andy Barry (Royal Exchange Theatre) and Sarah Butler.

Hoping we'd beat Croatia in the semi-finals and go on to have another victory in 2018, we asked our listeners where they were the moment that England won the World Cup back in 1966, and wondered if they thought that us winning again was a possibility. Unfortunately we didn't win, but being fourth best in the world is good enough for now. Well done to the French team (especially for beating the team who beat us). Maybe we'll win in 2022.
