@socialbloom, new social centre in bloomsbury

Hi everyone,

A new social centre has been opened up in the heart of Bloomsbury. The location is a disused, former museum held in joint ownership by the University of London and the School of Oriental and African Studies - which despite not being used for at least the last three years is still in excellent condition. Our intention is to use the space as primarily an organising hub in the lead up to the November 30 strike in the area (Bloomsbury in particular and the borough of Camden more widely). Simaltaneous with this we are using the space as an ongoing opportunity to provide meet-ups, events and meals to students, education workers, support staff, residents and the plain curious.

If you would like to organise an event or talk - please feel free to contact myself or .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or alternatively upload the event here - http://bloomsburysocialcentre.wordpress.com/booking-form/

    Plain best of all would be for you to come down and see us! We have dinner every night at 8pm, which is the perhaps the best opportunity to hang out (though any time is fine between 10am and 11pm Monday-Sunday).
