Hello from Goglife

The current political climate in the UK is depressing. Slightly less so in Cymru and Scotland but I, and a number of friends, are still struggling to come to terms with the 2015 election results. I wanted to do something in response to this, and I foresee marching at various points in the future, but it also got me thinking about life here in Y Gogs, my values and what really matters.

There are already a number of people working positively in communities who genuinely make a difference and I’m lucky because my job as a freelance/self-employed writer and workshop facilitator means I get to experience a lot of this first-hand; the flip-side is I’m also acutely aware of how cuts to the Arts are adversly affecting our communities.

This blog will be a meander through all of this, along with anything else I fancy writing about, so thanks for reading!
