Curious about podcasts? Join Curious Motion at Project Colt Feb 24th
Did you know that listening to podcasts can be good for your brain? It puts it in a state of active listening, which for most people is an important skill for developing good relationships.
Talking of active listening… Curious Motion want to hear from you! Their podcast will be returning later this year and local people can have their say on how it might best support mental health and achieve their aims of reducing loneliness.
Whether you’re a podcast lover or have never listened to one before, please share your thoughts!Join Curious Motion this Friday (24th), 10am, at Project Colt on Elland Bridge. There will be cake and coffee to welcome you! The session will be fun and informal, lasting around an hour but feel free to come for a shorter amount of time if you’d prefer.
The session will explore ideas for topics and themes, and decide on a new name!
Not free on Friday but want to be involved? Drop Sam email and she’ll be in touch with further info.
