Door to Doc – Doc Fest 2016

Tuesday, June 14th, 2016 at 5:13 pm

On Friday 10th June students from Learn for Life were invited to visit the opening of Doc Fest in Sheffield as part of the “Door to Doc” project. We were picked up by coach and taken to the Showroom cinema where we were given complimentary gift bags and saw the documentary, “Kedi”. The documentary explored the journeys of street cats and the people in Istanbul. After the documentary we were given a tour around the Alternative Realities Exhibition at the Millennium Galleries and the Virtual Reality Arcade at the Site Gallery which were very futuristic and hands-on. We got to speak to a holocaust survivor and got to walk around Mars. There are more photos available on our Facebook page.

Any Questions? at Sheffield Cathedral

A small group of us went to Sheffield Cathedral to take part in BBC Radio 4’s “Any Questions?”. It was an interesting and educational evening. It was also fascinating for individuals who have previously not been allowed, or seen people, disagreeing with the government in their own country due to fear of imprisonment or worse.
