WILD QUEERS: Queer ecology walk/wheel
WILD QUEERS is a series of guided sessions tuning into glimmers we can find in nature. For Pride month, join a small group for a short wheelable and walkable route in Margate's meadows and urban parks. Taking inspiration from queer ecology and disability justice, the sessions aim to create an intentional space of community care, where we learn from each other and see how nature can nourish and sustain us.
Logistics: The sessions will last about 1.5 hours and are LGBTQIA+ & disability centred, with allies welcome too. The routes are designed with different access needs in mind and have been tested by an electric wheelchair user. There are seats with back and arms available for those who may need them, and the session has multiple access breaks built in. More detailed access info can be found here: Access information
What to expect: We will not be covering much distance, the aim instead is to take up space in nature spots that are not designed to be accessible and welcoming to us to change that! Just bring yourself, no previous knowledge needed. We'll learn about the habitats around us from Phoebe, ID some flora and fauna together, spend some time reading or listening to writing on nature, with Kahra weaving in some somatic practices. There will be no expectation to talk, so come along however you are feeling.

Facilitator bios:
Phoebe Apollo (she/they) is a queer nature lover who retrained so she could be outside more. She now works for Thanet District Council taking care of trees and increasing biodiversity. Phoebe has always loved nature, especially how it helps fuel her to continue to fight for collective freedom. In return she wants to support our local community to have increased access to nature and feel more comfortable in urban green spaces. www.phoebeapollo.com/wild-queers
Kahra Wayland-Larty (she/her) is a neurospicy northerner who fell in love with the healing power of the Kent coast. She is co-Director of Soulwork & Co., a small collective rooted in the principles of healing justice, offering activists, leaders and organisations spaces to imagine and practise liberated ways of being. Endlessly inspired by the living world and our own bodies as sites of liberation, she offers somatic practices to help us embody a decolonised queer utopia, right here and now!www.soulworkco.org@soulwork.co
