And now for some welding

by Jess McCabe // 10 March 2008, 17:13

A group of women has turned an empty space in the London borough of Hackney into a new, women-only (trans-inclusive) social centre.

The 'wominspace' may not be around for long, as this is taking place in a squatted building, and a court case today could see them served with an eviction order as soon as April. But if you get down there now, you will get the chance to participate in a whole list of exciting-sounding workshops and events, including, yes, welding, "feminist singing", yoga, a women's health workshop, stencil-making, and a daily cafe and kids' space.
