This is an exciting piece of work from NECF and NECP which will hopefully go some way to making the NE the best place to be a cultural worker. Please check it out, fill it in and pass it on 🙏🏽
Cultural Freelancers in the #NorthEast are one of the greatest assets to our sector. We bring a diversity of experience and knowledge, plus huge insight into organisations. Which means we must work together to create structures where freelancers thrive.

Strike action disrupting your life is not the fault of the workers or the unions - it is the fault of the businesses/government choosing profit over people (which in turn works against economic growth)! Be annoyed at the strikes, but be annoyed with the right people!
Sometimes I dream…if I had a big house and money…it would still be a chaotic mess with mismatched furniture and filled with too much clutter

If Royal Mail execs have their way, it'll be the end of your local postie.
They dished out £2 billion to shareholders in recent years.
But it's never enough.
Now they want to turn it into a gig economy company.
That’s why 115,000 are on strike.

All of this! We must demand better from our organisations.

Sometimes I wonder “am I still dairy intolerant? What if I’m not and all this cheese is just passing me by?” So I test it and eat some cheese…the answer is definitely yes. Yes, I am still dairy intolerant 🤮

In rehearsal, few weeks ago, I caught COVID from a colleague who admitted he thought he had it (!) Cancelled shows, continuing breathing issues etc. Today, contrast liquid pumped into my veins, then CT scan. F***ing obvs, but please don't come to rehearsal if you feel sick !!!!
