Shoreditch Services - Locked out?

Had a little too much fun? Find yourself suddenly keyless/locked out of your home? Thanks to Ryan Nicholl, the 24 hr locksmith, you will no longer have to spend the night nestling on your stoop. This life saviour, yes, life saviour (he doesn't charge a call-out fee) lives in the neighborhood and makes himself available at any hour, night and day. So if you like myself, ever suffer from bouts of scatterbrain-ness, commit his details to memory and all will be well.

BASH



This past weekend us ladies had the privilege of helping out a fantastic growing company called BASH.  While our part in helping out was small, it made us feel good to participate in something that will ultimately be for the greater good.  BASH is a creative agency whose main impetus is to lessen Britain's ecological footprint.  They do this through various methods: from holding events that exude minimal ecological impacts, to having their own completely sustainable rooftop garden filled with plants and innovative new technologies, to campaigning among the community, spreading socially and ecologically conscious ideas.  Our encounter with the team at BASH, though brief, was most assuredly worthwhile- it's always refreshing to see people doing something that benefits society as a whole.  Make sure to check out the website for more information:

Philanthropic Theatre



Cordy House expands its repertoire of event hosting this month with the Carboard Citizens staging of Mincemeat


Cardboard Citizens is a charitable organisation that works with homeless and displaced peoples, both in reaching their practical needs and through theatre and performance arts.  Believing in the beneficial, change-evoking characteristics of theater, they offer free workshops and performance opportunities to homeless people. 


Written by Adrian Jackson & Farhana Sheikh, Mincemeat explores the mystery surrounding a dead body that significantly changed the outcome of the second world war.  The play is performed by professional cast including ex-homeless actors. 



A REMARKABLE PIECE OF THEATRE, MULTILAYERED, PASSIONATE...MAKES YOU ANGRY AND MAKES YOU CRY. **** Guardian


The play opens tonight (Monday 15th June) and runs till the 12th July @ Cordy House, Curtain Road, E2.
