Sharing this in case it’s of interest to anyone in our community.
I can recommend Liz Postlethwaite's permaculture course, as I recently took an online version of it (recommended by Jake T). Liz is a great teacher, and permaculture is a useful lens for thinking about systems - not just plants.

Hello!
We wanted to share two upcoming opportunities from Heart of Glass that might be of interest to our fellow Culture Network LCR members. We’d really appreciate your help sharing with your team and relevant contacts.
1) With For About 2026: Are you playing out? 🪁
Tickets are now live for WFA 2026.
The day brings together artists and practitioners who make art with children and young people - including artists, youth workers, play workers, teachers and producers.
As ever, With For About is a reflective, practice-based gathering rooted in shared thinking, curiosity, poetry and play.
We’re also offering a limited number of £50 bursaries to support artists, freelancers and independent practitioners to attend.
Booking is now open: https://www.heartofglass.org.uk/project-and-events/events/wfa2026
2) Introduction to permaculture for artists, creatives and cultural workers 🌱
We’re also running a short, subsidised course led by Liz Postlethwaite (permaculture designer and creative practitioner), exploring how permaculture principles can support creative practice, collaboration and long-term, regenerative thinking.
It’s a practical, accessible introduction - no prior knowledge needed - and could be particularly useful for members interested in ethical, socially engaged and regenerative ways of working.
Across three sessions (two online + one in person at Make Huyton), participants will:
Freelancer £10 | Micro org £25 | Small org £45 | Large org £65
Find out more and book here: https://www.heartofglass.org.uk/project-and-events/events/introduction-to-permaculture-for-artists-creatives-and-cultural-workers
Both opportunities are part of our ongoing commitment to supporting artists and cultural practitioners working in socially engaged ways - and to create space for reflection as well as action.
Thanks so much for your support, and do let us know if you’d like any further information.
Best wishes

I’m sending this email now because it suits how I balance my working hours. I don’t expect that you will read, respond to, or action this email outside of the hours that work for you.
