Ordinary Stories is a storytelling event for the LGBTQ community, to share experiences and conversation, and connect with others in a casual and intimate setting.
We welcome all forms of storytelling: stories, poems, songs, or unplanned rambles. There will be a sign up sheet on the night. If you change your mind after signing up, not to worry.
Follow us on instagram @_ordinarystories to keep updated and find out about our future events.
This next theme is ✧°˖.SOLIDARITY⭑˖✧
Some ideas for things to talk about: times you have been looked after; when you have cooked for or shared food with someone; what solidarity means to you; how you've connected with others recently; your first queer friend or relationship; how we can build a world for each other; how we can imagine a future together.
Whatever connects you with solidarity. We’re excited to hear about it.
***
Ordinary Stories is open to all members of the LGBTQ+ community and we welcome allies as audience members.

Venue Information
Salt the Radish will have drinks and a small selection of snacks available to buy, we are also happy for visitors to bring food in during the event
There is a single step into the café and a ramp available to use
Unfortunately, space is limited within the café and, while there are no steps to the toilet, it is a very small room with no grab rails rails or accessibility adaptations and can just about fit a small wheelchair inside.
There is free parking on Blackstock Road, Monsell Road and Finsbury Park Road. The closest tube station is Finsbury Park (Victoria and Piccadilly Lines, Northern City and Thameslink) and nearest overground is Crouch Hill, which is a 16 minute walk/13 minute bus ride to Salt the Radish
