Public Living Room
Fridays 10am-Midday
All year!
Free. Donations appreciated!
Camerados is a social movement, people who think that being a bit more human is a good idea, and the main way they do that is through Public Living Rooms.
We have joined with them to open a Public Living Room here at The Bureau, a welcoming, no-agenda place for folk to sit down with a cuppa, have a chat, and feel more human. Fancy getting creative? Why not bring down something you are working on and enjoy the company, or use some of the group's resources.
