Staff at KWMC celebrated Shrove Tuesday in style - by cooking up a pile of pancakes with a range of different fillings - from the traditional lemon and sugar to fruit, chocolate with peanut butter and maple syrup. Using two camping stoves and wary of setting off the fire alarms, staff had flipping competitions and ate their way through over 20 crepes. Sue and Jen who organised the event agreed it was "brilliant for staff wellbeing and team building."

Hawaiian shirts, shades and sangria were the order of the day at an alternative pre-Christmas party with summer holiday theme at Knowle West Media Centre. The popular networking event for artists and creatives included a show by Tom Marshman entitled "A Place in the Sun". The audience was entertained by some alternative flamenco dancing and introduced to some typical characters you meet on holiday.

A truly relaxing lunchtime session of yoga today at KWMC run by Carolyn Hassan, accompanied by harp playing from Martin Hanstead.

Thanks to Lloyds employees who took up the tools and helped clear the garden at Knowle West Media Centre (KWMC), under the watchful eye of our head gardener Jez. Under exceptionally hot weather for the time of year, they turned the overgrown borders into a tranquil space to enjoy.

A giant lettuce as bigger than a man's head was bought from Springfield Allotments for the Team lunch at KWMC today - encouraging staff to buy local, organic and avoid packaging. It was all part of Business Green Week and a good chance to sit together in the garden and have a chat.

A delegation of 34 people from Bristol's twin town of Bordeaux came to Knowle West Media Centre (KWMC) as part of their whistlestop tour of the city. They had the chance to explore the centre's environmental building and find out about creative and digital projects taking place. Staff member Justin Ricks gave a talk about KWMC's Pop Up Furniture Factory which makes and upcycles furniture and has just moved to Filwood Green Business Park. Staff really enjoyed the visit and were sad to see them go.

The exhibition for the Mother in the Mother project is being installed at Knowle West Media Centre (KWMC) this week. Mums across Bristol are invited for the opening, fun activities and refreshments this weekend to celebrate Mother's Day. Join Pippa on Saturday 14th March at 2pm at KWMC.

KWMC staff enjoyed a lovely Caribbean lunch at Rochlata in The Park, Daventry Road yesterday. Top favourite was Akee and Saltfish with rice and peas, closely followed by Jerk Chicken. Great to be able to sample international flavours right on our doorstep. It's advisable to book your food in advance if you don't want to wait as they get very busy.

An unveiling of the brand new Pop-up Furniture factory for Knowle West attracted crowds of local people when it opened its doors to the public last week. A showcase of new factory equipment - including a laser cutter and CNC router as well a range of recycled furniture made by local people were just some of the attractions. There was also the chance to chat to groups using the building such as Sew Clever and find out about local projects run by KWMC and re:work.

Over 65 people came to Andy's Haven Nursery at the Park this weekend. Highlights included the new baby chicks, petting the three goats and feeding the hens. Luckily the rain held off! Here are some of the visitors having a great time. Thanks Andy.
