Story of: Saturday Lime
Saturday Lime is an intergenerational, protected space for Global Majority* folks and their families in York and the surrounding areas to catch up like cousins, to hang out with no agenda. Tea and snacks provided, clothes & plant swap (or just take), games, hanging around. Intergenerational space for togetherness, conversation, play and rest.
Wheelchair accessible, two disabled bathrooms and quiet room available.
Message or email if you want funding for transport to get to the event.
Parking is available at Homestead Park - Shipton Road entrance or message about accessible parking.
Why Lime? Our Trinidadian friend @pixel.vistas introduced the slang word which is linked to the art of doing nothing, hanging out, eating, drinking and chilling together.
*Global Majority is an expansive term that refers to people who make up the Majority of the worlds population: Black, Indigenous, Brown, Gypsy, Roma, Traveller, Arab, Latin American, Asian and mixed ethnicity people.
