Seventeen Nineteen

I have had an absolutely brilliant time over the past summer at Seventeen Nineteen 🤩 I worked as a volunteer assistant to create a building guide for Holy Trinity Church, joined workshops and events, gathered important intel for the future of the project’s organisation and made lots of jewellery at jewellery club! After many hours of work and lots of revisions and reviews with the team, seeing my final results of the building guide was so wonderful - I reckon you should head over to Seventeen Nineteen to pick up a copy! Seventeen Nineteen is such an amazing building for reverberant sound but the echo does make it rather tough for someone with a hearing impairment 🦻 I’ve been practicing asking for what I need from people and being upfront about what works for my disability - I’m so grateful to have been surrounded by such a lovely bunch of visitors and staff who have worked with me to find solutions! Thank you Seventeen Nineteen Tracey Mienie Posy Jowett 🫶

As the current funding draws to a close at Seventeen Nineteen, a series of public meetings will take place to discuss the future of this asset to the community https://lnkd.in/ebtYV_eZ

Today I have the pleasure of joining local services at the Sunderland City Professionals Network at the stunning 17nineteen. Thank you Brian Logan and Tracey Mienie for inviting us along and for everyone who attended for donating to Love, Amelia. Working in partnership with local services and business partners is essential to help address child poverty. It was great to hear from Sarah Reid sharing insights about Richard Reed Solicitors and from and Mayor Kim McGuinness discussing plans for the North East. A brilliant event and great conversations 👏
