Tai Chi

Tai Chi with Hilary Thursdays 10 – 11am Tai Chi, an ancient Chinese martial art, is renowned for its gentle yet powerful movements that promote harmony of the mind, body, and spirit. Rooted in Taoist philosophy, Tai Chi cultivates balance, flexibility, and inner calm through a series of flowing, meditative motions. Practiced with slow, deliberate movements and focused breathing, Tai Chi enhances relaxation, reduces stress, and improves overall physical health. With its emphasis on mindfulness and graceful movement, Tai Chi offers practitioners a pathway to inner peace and vitality. £5 per session, drop in so no need to pre-book. No special equipment required, just wear loose clothing and light footwear.

We each just bring along a book that we have been reading. We discuss fiction, non-fiction, biographies, podcasts, and audiobooks. The more variety, the more interesting the conversation. It’s also a great spot to pick up recommendations for your next read! People who read Braille are welcome. £2 per person – includes refreshments. No booking required just pop in and join in…

Cafe Scientifique - The People’s Emergency Briefing film

The People’s Emergency Briefing film ‘screenings everywhere for everyone’ Watch Chat Act Synopsis: The film is based on last November’s National Emergency Briefing, which brought together leading UK experts in climate science, food security, health, economics, national security and nature. It presents a clear, measured overview of how the climate and nature crisis is affecting everyday life in Britain – and what the evidence says about risks and responses. The initiative is explicitly non-partisan and is supported by a wide range of organisations including the National Trust, Church of England, Exeter University, the Royal Meteorological Society, WWF, National Education Union, and many more. The purpose of the film is to support informed democratic discussion and ensure that national and local decision-makers, alongside the public, share a common understanding of the scale and urgency of the challenge. The film has already been shown in Carlisle and Penrith and other locations in Cumbria and I have been asked by many people to arrange a screening in Brampton. Following the 45-minute film, we will host a structured local discussion on what this means for our Brampton and District community, which will be facilitated by Jane Springett. Biography: Jane Springett is an emeritus professor at the Centre for Healthy Communities, University of Alberta, Canada. She has a doctorate in geography and her main area of expertise is participatory practice.
