After an amazing Cute Dance Chapter 1. (thank you so much to everyone who came and made it soo special) we are back to bring you more love with Cute Dance Chapter 2. aka Love Dance! We were able to raise over £1000 for Charity and we want to see if we can double that this time! So THIS TIME we want to share the love big time for a Valentine's Day Dance - It's not your usual Valentine's thing - we actually want to do things a bit differently. This is a celebration of friendship love, the love for music and the love we share for dancing with our community. Cute Dance aims to bring together what's good in the world. A celebration of friendship, community and dancing with a firmly rooted focus on fundraising for some of the most important causes. It is also a space for up and coming creatives be it in music, art, food you name it to have the opportunity to showcase their passion in a safe and supportive space. We know all problems can't be solved by money BUT organisations out there doing what is right need our support! Everyone involved in Cute Dance is a volunteer, providing their time and passion to put on a very special event to share love and community while doing what we can to raise funds for Charity. 100% of profits go to Charity! Powered by the Timi Sound System we will be bringing an eclectic mix of tunes that will keep those feet moving! Location: Bridge Farm Community (Thanks SO SO SO much for having us we love you!) We will also have delicious food (from SO MUCH EVERYTHING), photography/film exhibition, games and so much more. Keep an eye on the Cute.Dance.Community Insta for updates. Cute Dance Chapter 2 - Charity We Are Supporting: Bristol Based Project MAMA Project MAMA - Maternity Action for Migrants and Asylum Seekers Our organisation was founded in 2018 by Fiona Mann, an experienced support worker with survivors of human trafficking and modern slavery. Through this work she saw first-hand that migrated Mamas in Bristol were lacking essential support. A number of the people that Fiona worked with were pregnant, in some cases as a result of the exploitation they had survived. These parents-to-be faced significant barriers to perinatal health services. Many were also navigating pregnancy in an unfamiliar place without any family or close friends around them. Fiona’s clients would often ask her to accompany them as a birthing partner. This experience led her to gather midwives, activists, and birth workers to form Project MAMA, a solidarity network for migrated Mamas and babes. Migrated Mamas are significantly more likely to experience adverse birth outcomes. They are three times more likely to die in childbirth and four times more likely to suffer from postnatal depression than UK-born women. Their babies are more likely to be stillborn, born prematurely, or have a low birth weight (RCOG, 2015). Project MAMA seeks to address the structural and health inequalities that migrated and displaced people face in the perinatal period. We exist so that all Mamas can feel well-supported on their journey to parenthood and have a community around them when they need it most. https://www.projectmama.org/
