Join us for afterwork and a talk by Grace Harrison from Kitty's Launderette, a workers-led cooperative and social space in Anfield Liverpool.
All are welcome! The talk will be in English. Celebrating the year of the Cooperative!
WHEN?
Friday, 5 December, 2025
Food from 17.00
Talk from 18.00
WHERE
At the Direktörsvilla, Lundavägen 51 in Kirseberg.
Named after the Liverpool heroine Kitty Wilkinson, an Irish migrant who started the first wash- and bathhouses and as such initiated the workers-led public health movement in Liverpool in 1830, Kitty's Launderette is an award-winning community business that offers good quality jobs and tackles social challenges such as hygiene and fuel poverty, financial hardship and social isolation. Grace will tell the story of how they built a sustainable business in community and workers ownership, about what that has done for the local economy and well-being in a neighbourhood that experiences a lot of challenges and of course all the fun things that can happen in a social launderette space.

The talk is free. We offer food on donation basis.
This is part of a series of learning events at Backa Kåken, where we share stories and tools of how to create places, economies and movements that are fair, caring and inclusive.
