Professor Jason Arday will never be forgotten

What happened to Professor Jason Arday was not by accident. It was by design.

It was about sending a message to Black and minoritised communities to not challenge the LIES of Black intellectual inferiority.

Now in his passing, the community and our allies must and will uplift his legacy. Listen to his lectures, buy his book, read his research. Keep learning, keep challenging, keep showing up and showing off our intellectual prowess.

More of us must choose to be thought leaders and academics. Uphold the truth and diminish the lies.

We must protect our people, and our academics our Black perinatal women, our babies, our truth tellers, our sons, our daughters and our activists from the pernicious and insidious evil of anti-Black racism that surrounds us.

When they start on us we must protect each other. Pour love onto each other, and hold each other up. We must not be left to manage this s*** show alone.

We have to protect each other.

“I would take a thread and needle and I’d interweave love into our society.” Professor Jason Arday 1985 - 2026

Follow The Good Law Project and sign the petition for future protection from right wing press.

A little Friday check-in for our Black Mamas 🧡

However this week has felt, joyful, heavy, productive, overwhelming, or somewhere in between, there’s space for you here.

As we head into the weekend, we hope you’re able to find even a small moment to rest, reset and pour a little back into yourself. 🧡

Finding spaces where mums can prioritise their wellbeing with their babies isn’t always easy 🧡

That’s why our Mum & Baby Pilates sessions, made possible by , have been so special.

Pilates is a gentle way to support your wellbeing after birth, helping to strengthen your pelvic floor, reconnect with your core muscles, improve posture, reduce aches and pains, and create a moment to breathe alongside your little one.

More than anything, these sessions have been about creating a safe, welcoming space where mums can move, connect and pour back into themselves, because your wellbeing matters too.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us, and to YouFormia Room for making this possible. ✨

We’ll be back with more Mum & Baby Pilates sessions this Autumn, so keep an eye on our page for upcoming dates. We can’t wait to welcome you back! 🍂💜

Tuesdays are a chance to restart a Monday that perhaps didn’t go to plan.

Some days aren’t for resetting, smashing goals or starting again.

Sometimes, getting through the morning is enough.

Motherhood doesn’t pause because you’re tired, overwhelmed, touched out or carrying more than usual, so today, we’re leaving a little room for gentleness.

No pressure to have it all together. Just take the day as it comes.

What would make today feel even 5% lighter for you? 🌿
