234: Hearts Talking - HeartTalkPorty on the High Street

Send us Fan MailOver the last couple of weekends if you’ve been wandering along Portobello High Street you may have been stopped and asked for your input into the conversations happening as part of Heart Talk Porty. Mia McGregor and Sam Green brought Portobello ‘ The Cube’  a giant box accompanied by graffiti pens which tours all over the place and gives the public an opportunity to write or draw on it what they’d like to see in their community. www.cubeproject.co.ukwww.facebook.com/Thecubecreative@ThecubecreativeAlso as part of Heart Talk Porty there was a conversation about how Porty see the future of Transport. I spoke with Ellen Grunewald and Brenda Park from Porty Community Energy about how they were getting on.www.portycommunityenergy.wordpress.comwww.facebook.com/PortyCommunityEnergy@EnergyPorty James Lewis from Spokes Porty tells us how this conversation sits in the lobbying that their organisation has been doing for Active Travel. www.facebook.com/Spokes-Porty-314380299211576Stephen Hawkins led a discussion about the possibility of pedestrianizing the high street in Portobello. And finally, I spoke with Lynn Darke who brought Heart Talk a conversation called Building Resilience: How Do we take Care of Ourselves and Each other During Times of Transition and Grief?
