    S02 E13 Iso-Diaries: Sage Flowers on Accountability

    Harness is back! Welcome to isolation... we are exploring how people are harnessing this unique time of COVID-19 and whether (or not) they are coping. This week we continue our discussions around BLM with particular focus on Pride and Trans issues. We have the pleasure of interviewing Romy and Iona from Sage Flowers in South London. Romy and Iona are small business owners who are making a big difference when it comes to matters of inclusion and diversity within the British flower world. The traditional art of floristry in the UK, is typically associated with whiteness and elitism.  Romy and Iona have taken many impressive measures to challenge the status quo and hold themselves and others accountable. Please follow their creative work and activism via their instagram page @sage.flowers You can also find them through their website www.sageflowers.co.uk where (if you are UK based) you can order their gorgeous arrangements.   If you want to get in touch, please email us at projectharness@gmail.com, feel free to send over a voice note with how you are passing the time (a template for this is available on our Instagram if you are stuck).

    S02 E09 Iso-Diaries: Deeba Syed on Harassment in Lockdown

    Harness is back! Welcome to isolation... we are exploring how people are harnessing this unique time of COVID-19 and whether (or not) they are coping. We were challenged by Sonya Ryan (our favourite person) and the Carly Ryan Foundation to share a ‘Coronapiphany,’ namely an epiphany we have had in lockdown. We skip our news segment to bring you our coronapiphanies but you will still hear from our listeners about how they’ve been coping! In this episode we chat to Deeba Syed, an employment lawyer and political activist based in the UK. Deeba works alongside Rights of Women and runs their free advice line for women sexually harassed at work. Her work is incredibly vital and we wanted her perspective on how lockdown has affected victims of domestic abuse and those who have been harassed in the workplace. Follow Deeba: Twitter @deebasyed Instagram @deebaalinasyed For legal advice from Rights of Women please see the link below. https://rightsofwomen.org.uk/ If you want to get in touch, please email us at projectharness@gmail.com, feel free to send over a voice note with how you are passing the time (a template for this is available on our Instagram if you are stuck).

    S02 E06 Iso-Diaries: "Work is part of my self care"

    Harness is back! Welcome to isolation... we are exploring how people are harnessing this unique time of COVID-19 and whether (or not) they are coping.  For today's episode: we chat news (sort of), hear from our lovely listeners (including Daisy's mum!) and discuss isolation with junior doctor Radhika (AKA @veggierad on Instagram). It was such a treat to chat to Radhika, she gave us a comforting perspective on how hospitals in the UK are coping right now. She explains to us how she sees work as part of her self care and how it was to have coronavirus herself! We think Radhika's insight is invaluable at the moment and we suggest following her on Instagram to keep up to date.  If you want to get in touch, please email us at projectharness@gmail.com, feel free to send over a voice note with how you are passing the time (a template for this is available on our Instagram if you are stuck).  Follow Radhika on Instagram @veggierad  "COVID-19 Informer: South Africa expects 45,000 deaths and years of lockdowns" - https://www.canberratimes.com.au/story/6733636/south-africa-expects-45000-deaths-and-years-of-lockdowns/  "Postman delivers 'somewhere in Sheffield' parcel" - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-52395609  Hosted by Róisín Bevan and Daisy Grant  Socials @projectharness  Email projectharness@gmail.com  We are proud friends of Rafiki Mwema and The Carly Ryan Foundation - both charities work tirelessly to protect young people from harm.
