Sharing this incredible organisation, The Black Curriculum. A section of their website is below: "Currently, the national curriculum and exam board specifications are limited in providing Black British history. Furthermore, Black history is not mandatory in schools which follow their own curriculum. Without the resources, time and understanding, we are still going to face the same problems of historical inaccuracies, bias and a lack of enthusiasm in teaching and delivery. In the same manner, we can not simply rely on parents and carers to provide this material to young people. Black British history is not merely a theme for October, but started hundreds of years before Windrush and pre-dates European colonial enslavement. Our work aims to address and overcome these limitations by seeking to provide a contextual, globalised history that roots the Black British experience in histories of movement and migration - 365 days a year. We want to help prepare students to become fully rounded citizens and ready for an increasingly globalised world. Our curriculum is grounded in the arts for young people to engage with history imaginatively, encouraging student satisfaction and critical thinking skills. Through our holistic approach we aim to remedy a wider systemic issue." Changing the school curriculum would make a difference in the fight against systemic racism. All children need to learn about a diverse range of voices, histories and perspectives in school. If you could spare 2 minutes, please send an e-mail to Gavin Williamson - The Black Curriculum have written a fantastic template. Thank you! https://www.theblackcurriculum.com/action

They are allowed to comment The Cat but you do come across quite offensive and that is the issue. I find you offensive.

Thank you! ????

Because I like attachments, I have added another one.

Some books to read?

What would you like help with?

Thanks for the warning Dan.

Just donated. So awfully sad.

Every Mondays currently. virgosuzie Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > HI, I have some toiletries to donate, when is the > next donation date?

They do home delivery on Deliveroo and Ubereats.

I actually quite like it. It?s eye catching.

That is awful. They have always been lovely and respectful to us.

I usually thank them with a Christmas gift but I?ll be thanking when this is all over with an additional gift for doing a great job, especially given the nature of their job.

My child and I both had chicken pox twice. I?ve also had measles.

Happening again tonight. https://clapforourcarers.co.uk/

You are a star Heather. See you for a drink when it?s all over!

There are also items being stolen from doorsteps so if you are expecting anything, make sure you take it in as soon as it arrives.

That is terrible that both numbers are useless :(

I did my clapping from my upstairs window away from everyone. se22cat Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I can't help thinking that with the way housing > stock is set out in most of ED, that being at the > doorstep, less than 2 metres apart on many streets > is perhaps not so smart... > > Maybe tweeting support would be a much better > idea.

I agree as the refuse men are already risking germs as it is. The least we can do is bring our own bins in.

I thought it was out group of volunteers hence I corrected DF who was moaning about it but he didn?t bother to reply when I corrected him as no one was there to drink beer and socialise!

That might be the Mutual Aid Volunteers handing out flyers for the other volunteers to post within the GG Ward. The group is kept very small.

Seriously have a word with the supermarkets to stop people selfishly buying up everything in store.
