WomenTalkPlace are delighted to welcome Jini Reddy to launch the programme for the Talking Place Symposium.

Talking Place will take place over three days – an online day on Friday 2 September, and a two day symposium at The International Anthony Burgess Foundation on Friday 9 and Saturday 10 September. This evening we will reveal the programme, and chat with Jini Reddy about finding magic in our relationships with place.
