I am running a seasonal dyeing workshop on Friday the 6th of July from 13:30-15:30 at the Rosendale Allotments. We will explore how to successfully dye with plant-based materials that can be gathered locally in high summer and create a number of different colours.

We will cover such things as how to prepare fibres for dying, modifying colours and how to gather and store materials for dying. We?ll be dyeing with leaves, flowers and roots so there?ll be plenty of exposure to different methods of extracting dye.

Everyone will receive samples of wool that we?ve dyed in the workshop and there?ll be the opportunity to buy silk scarves that can be dyed in the workshop and taken home.

Friday 6 July 13:30-15:30: Dyeing with high summer plants

The sessions take place at the Rosendale Allotment Community Space, 227 Rosendale Road, London SE21 8LR

To book your space please email me [email protected].

  Give the Monster Raving Loony party a shot. They cannot be worst that what is around now.

  I think there's a lot in what you say. Although bi election results aren't usually indicative of GE results, I was horrified to see Reform support was so high in what had previously been a Labour stronghold, Labour and Conservative results reflecting the tired old parties they are. It isn't our generation (sorry @Sue if I'm being presumptuous!) that will decide the outcome of elections but those in their 20s, 30s, 40s ... if they can be bothered to vote. The Greens and Reform now present a real choice instead of two centrist main parties of the last 30 years which has put people off voting. Perhaps locally I will continue to vote Labour, i really couldn't bear for the LibDems to return and we have to consider the demographic of the whole of Southwark. But come the GE I will probably vote Green.

  I agree but in the case of McAsh, that would just have left his constituents without a councillor for 3 months until the May elections. MPs switching parties is really galling. If an MP is suspended for law breaking etc., then a recall petition can be issued and, if enough of the constituents support it, a by-election is called. I think the same should apply for defectors.
