⭐ We are looking for names ⭐ and need your help.

So here is our newest member of our Mindful Photography Team ❤️

I met a lovely lady on holiday this autumn who told me her sister Karen, who lives in Spain, knitted bears as her hobby. I spoke to her sister on WhatsApp right there and then and she loved the idea that we connect communities through photography 🌈

I asked if I could order one for our Mindful Photography UK sessions!!

Look what appeared this weekend 🐻

⭐ We are looking for names ⭐ and need your help. If a person is feeling a little nervous when attending a session for the first time, I am sure our bear will brighten their day with that little face!

Karen has even used our brand colour too !!

Thank you Karen 🙏

Here is her insta page here

It was wonderful to be part of the
Shared York CIC launch today at the St .Sampson 's Centre, York

❤️ What we did - we enjoyed beautiful photography from Northern Echoes: The Hidden Legacy of Chinese Gardens in Yorkshire

We discovered the hidden connections between Yorkshire’s grand landscapes such as Castle Howard, Fountains Abbey, and Harlow Carr, and the classical gardens of the East. The exhibition, jointly curated by Shared York CIC and the St. Sampson's Centre, explored the cultural exchange between East and West through visual displays, expert interpretation, and live music.

The launch marks the beginning of a new series of cultural programmes celebrating international heritage and the power of gardens to connect people and places across time.

We were joined by The Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of York, Cllr Martin Rowley BEM

With a really fascinating keynote speech from Dr. Christopher Ridgeway, Head Curator of Castle Howard

I just loved the live music performance from the East Asian Ensemble which was so moving ❤️

I cannot wait to share the beauty of and with this community
