Circus-skills moving to Sundays
Circus-skills afternoons, now including pole-dancing and general fitness are going to move to Sundays from this weekend. At the same time, 2pm – 5pm.
This will replace the bike workshop which is looking for a new weekly time slot and more people to help run it.
No Borders meetings are no longer at the Red and Black and are currently moving across Cardiff.
Thanks to everyone who has helped and continues to help make our regular events successful. You can now see all our current events on our calendar.
The roof, the roof, the roof…still needs to be fixed…
Come to our benefit gig to help us make it happen…
Rash Decision also contacted but yet to confirm.
All money raised to go towards fixing the (at least) 3 year-old hole in the roof…!
(The roof is above the lived-in part of the Red and Black Umbrella building, but money has always been tied together.)

Drinks tolerated, Drunkeness not.

Two great workshops returning!
We’re happy to announce the return of two great RBU workshops:
The free bike workshop (formerly Black Spokes) and the Circus skill-share are back!
We’re hoping to make these both regular events again but it depends if there is enough interest to make it happen, so please turn up to support these events if you can!
You can find more information on our events on the website’s Calendar and Events Calendar (which is hopefully also going to include regular events at some point!)
