Is there any better way to brew up ideas with the community than with the @maisonfoo Tea Ladies? We think not @Platform_Thrty1 ! Amazing first day of 3 had with @WesthousesP & Newton Residents in Blackwell Parish for #greatercreative project thank you @TNLComFund 🙌

The Government wants to impose a catastrophic 50% funding cut to arts subjects at higher education (HE) level in England. I've joined the @Public_Campaign for the Arts to tell @GavinWilliamson: arts education matters. Will you join too? campaignforthearts.org/petit…

Second time this week I’ve been back in Tea lady mode for @maisonfoo ! Feels so good to step into my eccentric self, it’s like therapy and escapism all in one. If you have chance today get your silly game on I promise you will feel 100 times better for it!

Late last year, the Mirror Ball was dismantled from the Promenade to have a glamorous makeover after the salty sea air corroded the mirror tiles.
The work is requiring 1,000 tubes of adhesive to replace all 47,000 mirrors!
It’ll be back shining in time for the summer season☀️
