Home In A Bag

Home In A Bag is a performance co-created with our Stronger Together Leaders and theatre-maker Erene Kaptani as part of our #NoticeUs campaign to improve Temporary Accommodation in Greenwich.

 

The performance talks about the challenges experienced by women in temporary accommodation with not being given enough notice to move and what the impacts are for themselves and their children.

Huge thanks to Trust for London, Disrupt Foundation and 

University of Greenwich for supporting us to develop this piece and take it to wider audiences including key decision-makers. â€‹

“Beautiful performance, raising awareness on such urgent issues.”

#NoticeUs Song

Guided by Tamara Astor and Rebekka Hölzle and thanks to support from Trust for London, our Stronger Together group co-created a song to support our #NoticeUs campaign. 

​

We had the opportunity to open the Citizens UK London Mayoral's Assembly in April 2024 singing it to over 2000 people, asking for change in Temporary Accommodation in London.

"Our life is a question mark

And you keep us in the dark

But we keep shining 

and our voices are strong"

In this participant-led documentary, a group of migrant women overcome their feelings of isolation and powerlessness when they are trained as community organisers, using their new skills to campaign for justice.

Our Stronger Together Leaders co-created this theatre performance as part of our #NoticeUs campaign to improve temporary accommodation for migrants.

 

We recorded the film over Zoom and have since hosted many screenings.

This film was made as a complete collaboration between our group's members, each submitting footage and audio from their lives during lockdown and contributing creatively to the final piece over 12 weeks. 

 

It is a celebration of the strength and resilience of this group of women as they continue on their journeys.

Lockdown saw us move all our creative activities online and so when it came to the exhibition for our My Creative Skills project we did the same!

 

Thanks to Anna Merryfield for guiding us into the world of virtual exhibitions!
