2022 - the year that made up for the last two years!

Wow, when we look back at everything we got up to in 2022 it's amazing that we managed to fit it all in. We packed so many activities in that it easily made up for all the face to face meetings we'd missed out on in 2020 and 2021 due to lockdowns.

We already mentioned the Audacious Women's Festival in a previous blog post, here are just some of the other activities we got up to in 2022:

• We ran a series of free craft events at Duncan Place Community Hub

• Chocolate tasting night

• Litter pick on the Links

• Lock in at Hotter Shoes

• Campfire on Porty beach for the summer solstice

• Volunteered at the Royal Highland Show

• Burlesque class

• Visit to Lochend Secret Garden

• Lots and lots of Festival fun: free tickets to Murrayfield and the Festival Theatre and the Pleasance and a jungle book dance workshop led by EIF staff (and lots more!)

• Ladies self defence class with an Olympic medalist!

• SUP and kayaking at Musselburgh Lagoons

• Ran a stall during Celebrate Leith

• Had evening tea and a suffragette speaker for our AGM

• Created items for the Grassmarket Community Project over three evenings

• Squeezed in a few pub visits

• Halloween cake-pops (yum!)

• Wild swim to mark the end of summer

• Silent disco and buffet Christmas party
