'Sorf Hair ' - Film Screening Experience
We have teamed up with our friends at Hair Popp to host a screening of Shari Pettis incredible documentary - Sorf Hair .
Sorf Hair
People with kinky/curly hair have been the butt of hair jokes for centuries. From discrimination to lost opportunities, these issues tend to take a toll on the lives of “naturals” around the globe. Sorf Hair explores the natural hair experience in T+T as people from all walks of life and with different hair textures reveal their stories and challenges.
Join us on Sunday, November 27th at the Malcolm Guishard Recreational Park for an afternoon of film, conversation, shopping and a few yummy surprises. It’s going to be a truly lovely experience and we can’t wait to see you.
Tickets are $10.00 XCD (free admission for children under 12) and can be purchased here
Chill With IGR - The Gratitude Gathering
2021 has been more than a little turbulent for mostly everyone we know, yet even amidst the consistent plot twists ( or re-routes) we truly believe that there is always something which we can be grateful for. It's because of this that we are offering a day to do just that - celebrate your wins, amplify your joy and infuse your day with some good vibes.
Your time with us will be spent engaging in a short but sweet 'Gratitude Workshop' , indulging in the most comforting dinner prepared by our event partners Blooming Scent cafe, watching a feel good movie with us and basically just hanging out as we all prepare to head into the festive season. Consider this event your moment of respite.
There will be music and even a few games there for you to play (or not) - it's all up to you.
Dress code is to be as comfortable as possible - think cozy knits, joggers, fluffy socks...
Tickets can be purchased here and we can't wait to spend this time with you.
Afternoon Tea at The Shangri-La The Shard, London
We have teamed up with the amazing Shangri-La The Shard, London and together we are hosting a very special Afternoon Tea to raise funds for not one, but two amazing Cancer care charities.
Here’s a little hint of what we’ll be feasting on whilst looking absolutely fabulous of course.
A fine selection of delicious finger sandwiches and Shangri-La signature loose-leaf teas, including a pink welcome tea, followed by freshly baked pink scones with clotted cream, strawberry jam and pink grapefruit curd.
The tea will be topped off with pink handcrafted pastries, which include a lychee and rose sandwich and a sumptuous fig and hazelnut tart with gold leaf.
For an extra special touch, guests can indulge with a glass of Laurent Perrier Cuvée Rosé Champagne or a refreshing Pink Passion mocktail including cranberry, grenadine, coconut cream and ginger ale, served over crushed ice.
Proceeds from this beautiful event will be donated to both Guy’s Cancer and Pink Lily Cancer Care (Nevis)
Tickets can be purchased here and we truly can not wait to see you all!
Chill With IGR - 2020 Reflection And Gratitude Gathering
2020 has undoubtedly been the YEAR of all YEARS.
We have experienced a global pandemic, uprisings, political unrest and apparently even swarms of locusts.
We have all in some way been impacted by the unrelenting unfolding of it all.
We are all pretty exhausted - right?
So for our final Chill With IGR of 2020 we have decided to focus on the good (because, some pretty amazing things happened too). Come join us for a Good Vibes only gathering to celebrate your wins and share space for gratitude and joy.
Team IGR will be sharing our personal 2020 gratitude lists with you as well as wellness tips to help you thrive even when the world literally seems to be falling apart! We are big on rest so be prepared to hear us talk about how important this component of caring for your wellbeing is.
A few of our Chill With IGR alumni will also be in attendance and we are really looking forward to catching up with them.
PLUS (drum roll please) - we have the BEST giveaways from Halcyon Naturals, This Is Book Love and Know Your Caribbean.
