Could you please take the giant signature down a notch? There's really no need for it to include most of the information you're putting in your posts anyway and I'm sure you'd rather edit it yourself than have me do it :)

Also, when you say this is in a 'space', does this mean it's outdoors or partly outdoors?

Sorry, amended - bit overzealous trying to get the new contact details in front of people.

No, it's indoors although there is a garden it's unlikely we'll be setting up anything outdoors in winter - it's a community space like the ones run before it

No problem - I think we just understand the word 'space' to mean different things.

By all means stick the phone number or whatever in your signature since you're here to promote an event, it just doesn't need the rest :)

Breakfasts are on tomorrow :) get in touch for location.

If you work with other swers we've got a flyer that can be shared on twitter - https://twitter.com/ldnswb/status/1475953710396325888 and there are printed copies at breakfast you can take to put up in the staff area in your workplace.

We've got LFTs, makeup and toiletries, lingerie and clothes, condoms, sponges and other bits if you need em! Also, there is a computer in a private space with internet access for anyone who needs to update sites/ads or do any other kind of admin as we all know how annoying mobile browsers can be.

We are hoping to begin running regular drop in clinics with a nurse too, which means we would also have std testing, covid, hep b & flu vaccines, assistance with gp appointments amongst other things available - if this would be of interest to you please let us know in person at breakfast or by email/message/dm to the details posted above so we can get the ball rolling.

I realise also i hadnt mentioned accessibility - the space is all on the ground floor and wheelchair access can be arranged as long as you text at least a few minutes ahead of arriving. Can't go into too much detail in case a nosy client recognises the venue from the description so for any other requirements get in touch for more info.

We're still on this week! Info above. Got lots of lovely donations of new knickers, leggings and socks and loads of makeup too now!

A few people have asked about why we're still requiring everyone who attends to do an LFT now that it's no longer required by the government. This isn't something we decided to do because of government requirements, but in order to look after each other. None of us get sick pay and if anyone gets covid they aren't able to work, so we will continue to ask everyone to do a test and not come if they have any symptoms for the forseeable. We don't require attendees to have been vaccinated and have spare LFTs you can use on arrival if you're unable to get one beforehand  :)

Hiya,
