Hi everyone,
A quick email about two free British Psychological Society (BPS) events in London and some further info requesting submissions for the Community Psychology Festival in Hertfordshire. All these are open to the general public and non-members of the BPS.
Events
1) “Putting Systems Thinking, Prevention and Social Justice at the Heart of Our Practice”: An Introduction to Community Psychology Using the Example of London's Unjust Housing System", London Event: Tuesday 19th June, Free.
This event is in partnership with community activists from housing estates under threat from 'regeneration' and with women residing in 'temporary accommodation'. We aim to launch a new campaign - come and join us and shape what we do next....

3) Community Psychology Festival - in September.
There is still a chance to submit proposals to contribute to this vibrant and diverse Festival - under the themes Play, Work, Power and Sustain. We would like as many people as possible to participate.
We will be providing bursaries for community members, activists and groups and those that can please help us do that by adding a 'pay forward' donation to your ticket. We have also kept the tickets as cheap as we can.

Thanks everyone, happy Fridays and weekends to you all!

Best wishes
Sally (Chair of the Community Psychology Section)
