So, what's coming up?

‘So, here’s the thing…’ is back with another cracking line up. We will be back on campus, so hoping to see you in T-Pod C. Coming up, we've got:

Wednesday 8th December- Soap making: Bound to get you in a lather. LLS' very own Jo Farmer talks to us about her adventures in soap making. This is a free event but please register your attendance
Wednesday 26th January- Hugh Davenport, vinyl enthusiast, will be sharing his love of records with us (he did this once before back in May and we ran out of time so he’s back by popular demand…and this time, he’s bringing his record player!) This is a free event but please register your attendance.

Later in the season we will also be welcoming Frank Jordan and Annie Doughty, talking about LGBT+ History Month, and Kirstie Pope talking about Autism Awareness.
