Join us 28.02.2023 at 7 PM GMT For a live Zoom conversation between Safiya Robinson & Shanice Bryce

Shanice Bryce is the founder of Studio Oom:

What started as a one-off supper club in response to the effects of the climate crisis in Jamaica, oom continued to be inspired by how food could serve as a catalyst for connection.

oom's philosophical way of approaching creativity sees food, art, and design as an ecosystem food being the sustenance, art being the environment, and design being the vessel.

More information on the conversation will be updated soon!

This conversation will be in English & will be recorded and transcribed to our website at a later date.

Safiya Robinson is a creative cook, writer, wellness advocate and the founder of sisterwoman vegan, a plant based social enterprise exploring wellness through food. Inspired by her Black American, Jamaican and British heritage she creates plant forward dishes, believing that food is a healing modality, centring community, education and mindfulness in her work. With a focus on holistic wellness and mental health she creates spaces for critical food conversation and seeks to empower us all to think more critically about the food that we eat. Through supper clubs, cooking lessons, writing, events and food education, her focus is intentional nourishment. She is currently enrolled in a masters programme in the Anthropology of Food at SOAS University. Safiya was nominated one of Code Hospitality's Top 100 Women in Hospitality 2021.

Since you’re here…

… we have a small favour to ask. We don't want your money to support a hack's bar bill at Abattoir, but if you have a pound or two spare, we really encourage you to support a good cause. If this review has either helped you discover a gem or avoid a turkey, consider doing some good that will really make a difference.

You can donate to the charity of your choice, but if you're looking for inspiration, there are three charities we really like.

Show me the charities

Mama Biashara
Kate Copstick’s charity, Mama Biashara, works with the poorest and most marginalised people in Kenya. They give grants to set up small, sustainable businesses that bring financial independence and security. That five quid you spend on a large glass of House White? They can save someone’s life with that. And the money for a pair of Air Jordans? Will take four women and their fifteen children away from a man who is raping them and into a new life with a moneymaking business for Mum and happiness for the kids.

Theatre MAD
The Make A Difference Trust fights HIV & AIDS one stage at a time. Their UK and International grant-making strategy is based on five criteria that raise awareness, educate, and provide care and support for the most vulnerable in society. A host of fundraising events, including Bucket Collections, Late Night Cabarets, West End Eurovision, West End Bares and A West End Christmas continue to raise funds for projects both in the UK and Sub-Saharan Africa.
