Meditation circle 

Join Maryam for a gentle guided grounding meditation followed by tea and sharing circle. The aim is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for anyone with any experience and beliefs to feel calm and de-stress and maybe try something new.

The meditation is about 20 minutes and the circle after will provide an opportunity for sharing and discussion.

This month's meditation includes a Guided Manifestation Journey to usher you towards reaching your desired goal followed by Textile Charm Making  to anchor the high vibration energies of the journey and your intention into your physical world.

Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders is an epic alternate world sci fi adventure featuring the World’s Greatest Detective as people have never seen him before.

When Watson leaves Holmes to help Crick unravel the DNA helix and finds himself in the employ of England’s most evil man, Holmes is forced to team up with an unlikely group to defeat this monstrous figure and return England to its status quo. But can he defeat the machinations of the man at the rudder of the country?

Sherlock Holmes and The Empire Builders: The Gene Genie is perfect for fans of Michael Moorcock (Elric, Jerry Cornelius) and Bryan Talbot (The Adventures Of Luther Arkwright, Grandville). Winning a Comic Scene award for Best Crowdfunder in 2025, it has already garnered quite a following since its debut in 2020 as a short comic story in the pages of Tripwire. This complete collection features a brand new introduction by award winning writer JM DeMatteis (Moonshadow, Spider-man: Kraven’s Last Hunt), and a brand new wraparound cover by Eisner award winning artist Laurence Campbell (Hellboy).

Here comes our next movie night! We're massive film fans and screening movies here at the shop was a dream of ours since we started. Our film night has now been running for nearly six months and works a bit like our book clubs: every film is chosen by someone in the group who came to the previous film. Come join us and enjoy a drink or two from our bar while you're here.

Under the terms of our license we're not permitted to reveal in advance the name of any film we screen - but we may post some clues here as the date approaches. ;D

Revolutions are emphatically the stories of actions taken by the mass of people. The Great Revolutions happened when the people least often connected to high politics made decisive moves, from the women and apprentices in London in 1641, to the factory workers of Petrograd in 1917.

Too often, the startling reality of the power of mass actions is hidden behind narratives which emphasise a few leading individuals, or which take an Olympian view of the economic and ideological changes behind events.

This book seeks to show how the events of the Great Revolutions in England, America, France and Russia were driven from below. These were times when ordinary people were able to make their own history.

‘Alexander combines the historian’s eagle-eye for informative detail and cool analysis with the practical street-level experience of a longstanding community activist.’ – Rachel Holmes

‘Dominic Alexander gifts us with a timely, succinct, well-researched, wonderfully readable survey of interwoven political and social revolutions from England, France, North America, and Russia.’ – Paul Le Blanc
