I like the collective noun: ‘pride’, as in a ‘pride of lions’. It aptly describes the nobility & power of citizens who group up 2 create & produce a shared vision. A ‘pride of citizens’, less the patriarchy ‘ violence. I doubt it’ll catch on;) but we need better collective nouns.

A young resident had an idea for the Great Polsloe Bake Off, here's a beautiful poster she designed, the neighbourhood is looking forward to welcoming the new students to the community with a tea-party and cake competition #wellbeingexeter

Fun afternoon at Eaton House playing games on the lawn, it was nice to see some new faces. I was taught how to throw a horseshoe properly and had advice on the best technique for boules.

Traditionally, help is thought of as keeping ppl out of harms way & safety is understood as preventing bad things happening. This mind-set is endemic in Western culture- there’s nothing wrong wt the perspective but it’s limiting. Here’s another perspective https://t.co/2fM3gyeUwS
