Friday last week I was in an amazing workshop for the Over the Global Counter project. I was hooked in to this event by the image that @kleinalexandre thoughtfully posted next to the CFP on histoiresante.blogspot.com - top blog & also a fab news source for our own UK Disability History and Heritage Hub bulletin


'A pretty face looks the prettier and a plain face far less plain when seen in a frame' - hmmn -convinced me bath chairs fit the brief for the Over the Global Counter workshop 'selling health, hygiene & beauty' though. Thanks to Hilary Ingram Anna Greenwood @Hornsey_HQ for organising!


✨@Hornsey_HQ closed out the Counter Culture public lecture series yesterday Lakeside Arts with a fascinating sold out talk about the rise of chain stores in the UK. Afterward, we headed to the exhibition to watch the gallery robots in action! 🚀🤖 #CounterCulture #Boots175
