SUMMARY:Northern Lights: We Have Arrived: Renewing Roots
DESCRIPTION:Fréa’s Renewing Roots programme supports former residents 
 of Ireland’s Mother and Baby and County Home institutions who now live i
 n the north of England.\n\nTheir arts for wellbeing group began in spring 
 2025 with the aim of using creative practices to explore their experiences
  and build a community of understanding. The group meet monthly and enjoy 
 a programme of activities with UK and Irish artists and facilitators.\n\nL
 ed by Liverpool potter Olivia Rowan\, the group have hand-made\, decorated
  and glazed ceramic sections which together represent the cross-section of
  a root. The Fréa Renewing Roots logo is inspired by the root — ‘f
 réamh’ in Irish — as they are anchored and strengthened by their shar
 ed heritage.  The green leaf shoot of Renewing Roots represents growth
  and hope for the future.\n\nScan the exhibition’s QR code to hear the p
 oem We Have Arrived\, written in collaboration with theatre-maker and wri
 ter Aoibh Clarke (Wee Yarn Productions). A fully accessible version of the
  poem will be available as part of the event on 1 Nov 2025 at The Bluecoa
 t\, where visitors are invited to meet the contributors and hear excerpts 
 from Fréa Renewing Roots oral history project\, soon to be stored at
