We cycled over to Central Library for the launch of the new Cultural Strategy for Manchester. Great to hear lots of exciting plans for supporting arts and culture in districts and we LOVED the performance by the Women Asylum Seekers Together 🧡 choir! ♥️

Good to see coverage of our report which highlights the huge challenges facing women (cis and trans) experiencing homelessness, and the services who support them, across Manchester in a context of years of austerity.

Last week our choir was delighted to sing at the launch of @MCRCulturalPship strategy 'Always, Everywhere'. Through the WAST choir we challenge the misconceptions people have of us and invite them to recognise the similarities we share, not our differences.

Wonderful to come together with our partner orgs today. We're thankful for the space to reflect, share ideas & build our solidarity 💛 We will not allow members of our communities facing enforced destitution to struggle alone without support. #EndDestitution

In partnership with The University of Manchester and Rubina Jasani, women from WAST's management group, shared their lived experienced insights at a recent symposium, discussing the play SLAVE – A Question of Freedom. #Theater buff.ly/4hFX2Ng
