SUMMARY:Where Do We Go From Here?
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Where Do We Go From Here? \n10 people\, one platform. A call for change but will change come? \nThrough missing a connection\, we find we have more in common than that which divides us. \nIn the breakdown of a system comes the opportunity for something new. \nDevised\, written\, and performed by asylum seekers\, refugees\, and those with lived experience of (dis)abilities or mental health challenges. This play speaks of our current times through the voices of people who often go unheard. Followed by post-show Q&A hosted by Fiona Talkington\, writer\, and broadcaster BBC Radio 3. \nThis performance will include BSL (British Sign Language) for the deaf community and AD (Audio Description) will be available. Wheelchair access is also available. This performance is suitable for 12+. If you need BSL interpretation and/or prefer to be near where the interpreters are more visible\, please enquire about this via the Front of House staff before the show and ask them for recommendations. We will also have a BSL interpreter before the show to help with this. \nWith special thanks to our partners: \nRefugee Support Group\, University of Reading\, LAMDA\, Reading Museum\, The Museum of English Rural Life\, Paff After the Emergency. \nSupported by The Arts Council England\, Reading Council and Berkshire Community Foundation\, thank you for your continued support. \nTicket Prices: \n£10 \n£5 Student Concessions[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]

SUMMARY:Tackling global helminth diseases – a veritable can of worms
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This seminar will outline aspects of research undertaken by the DeWorm3 project (2015-2023)\, which included a series of community cluster randomised controlled trials to determine the feasibility of interrupting transmission of soil-transmitted helminth (parasitic worm) diseases in focal geographical areas. It will discuss existing evidence and the new methodological approaches needed to generate data necessary for informing potential novel and effective intervention strategies for human helminth infections\, highlighting some of the challenges in developing a true One Health approach.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Register to attend using the online form.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
