About this event

  • 2 hours 30 minutes

This is Congo is an unfiltered look in to the lives of 3 characters surviving amongst the most recent cycle of conflict in the Democratic Republic of Congo, otherwise known as the M23 rebellion. It won 6 awards and was nominated for a further 5.

We are partnering with Women's Concern whose mission is "to lead rural women and girls to discover their potential, support them in their promotion, enhancement and exploitation for inclusive development" through action research. We are delighted to have a representative from Women's Concern joining us on the night live via zoom from DRC - Congo.

We are collaborating with The Food Hub on this Films for Justice series. The Food Hub is a local community organisation standing for food sovereignty and working towards a sustainable local food system.

We are also collaberating with Tirnanog Holistic Centre.

Spaces are limited.

ALL WELCOME.


We will also be collecting clothing and tent donations to take to refugees in Calais if you have any of the items on the list below we would be very grateful to recieve them.

Our focus is on developing community, mental and physical wellbeing and reducing social isolation through the power of nature, herbal medicine and movement. 

As a non-profit social enterprise all of the money raised from our work goes back to the community to develop our community workshops, yoga classes, HerbCare Events and Solidarity work.

We work with various marginalized groups across Central Scotland, so please get in contact to find out how we can work with your project.

You can support our work by attending our events, booking us for your hen/birthday/corporate party, volunteering, or donating to our work, by doing this you are enabling us to provide wellbeing for all.
