Shot on location in Walthamstow, choreographer Shyne Phiri and filmmaker Floyd Konde have responded to themes of human interdependence, strength, and vulnerability, creating short dance film ‘Outside In’. Sensitive movement and the juxtaposition of contrasting locations make this compelling viewing. Shyne was supported in his creative process with choreographic support from Stopgap Dance Company.
Floyd Konde has created a short documentary capturing DashDotDance’s work at The Limes Community and Youth Centre. The film captures IRIS trained practitioner Vicki Busfield’s initial taster workshops with participants. The film captures participants and staff’s responses to dance activity.
Alongside these community films, Stopgap Dance Company will also be showing 'Artificial Things' a film adaptation of their stage work of the same name.

The Zest team will be back to creating lovely lunches for you, as soon as it is safe to do so. In the meantime, take care #Walthamstow.
#Covid19
The Coronavirus situation is a fast-moving one but rest assured we are closely monitoring all latest advice. We will take appropriate measures, as necessary, to protect the children & young people in our care.
For now, we are opening as normal with extra precautions in place... but we are also relying on you to help us, by making sure you do not attend if you or your child is in any way unwell. Please notify us by phone or email but do not come to the centre.
We will keep you updated in the coming days.
Many thanks for your cooperation in keeping the children, young people and staff safe.

Tuesday/Thursday/Friday
9.30am to 11.30am (term-time)
Come and meet other local parents, enjoy our fabulous facilities, planned play experiences, sensory sessions and interactive singing and storytime.
Our facilities include a Sensory Room, Adventure Playground, Soft Playroom and Ball pit!
We apologise that some of our regular services at The Limes are temporarily suspended.
As an Ofsted-registered childcare provider, The Limes is required by law to ensure that it has a manager who is registered with Ofsted as a suitable person on-site at all times when care is being provided for children and young people under the age of 18. This applies to those services where children and young people are attending The Limes without a parent or guardian also being present. We are in the process of registering new managers with Ofsted, so that these services can be re-opened as soon as possible.
This has happened because several of our staff have been unwell over the last few weeks. As a small charity, we rely on a small number of core staff, and illness meant that we have not had enough staff who are also Ofsted-registered managers available to run all our services. We had to suspend some services in December due to staff sickness, and we are still waiting for Ofsted to confirm that our applications for our new managers to be registered have been accepted before we can re-open these. Unfortunately, the Christmas period when government offices are closed has delayed the registration process, and the applications are still being processed.
Staff and the Trustees at The Limes are all working very hard to be able to re-open all our services as soon as possible.
We will update this message regularly, and we will let all our regular service users know as soon as our Ofsted-registered services can re-open. We hope that this will be in the next few days. Our other services for children accompanied by their parents and guardians are open as normal.
We look forward to welcoming you all back to our full range of services at The Limes very soon.
Staff and Trustees of The Limes, 16 January 2020
Come and join us for Family Playtime, Sat 7 March - 9.30-11.30am. We might even provide some sunshine for you!
