Don’t forget – only 2 weeks to go!
‘The Thank You Body Festival’ on July 12th from 10am – 4pm at the Forum, Norwich.
It is a FREE event to celebrate body diversity, inspire self-acceptance and build community.
It will be a body positive gathering of people, to inspire change, challenge social norms and empower people to love and accept the skin they are in.
The festival will be an interactive and fun day, packed full of embodied movement sessions, story telling, inspirational talks, an ‘Beyond Skin Deep’ art installation, a ‘Wild Woman’ photographic exhibition, well-being practitioners, body art and an exciting ‘out-with-a-bang’ finale!
You don’t even need a ticket – come for part of the day, the whole day, just don’t miss the day! Oh, and make sure you stick around for a special surprise at 4pm 😉
The festival also marks the launch of our 2nd ‘Pocket Book of Hope and Transformation – #EmergingProud through disordered eating, poor body image and low self-esteem’.
