The Price of Belonging: Community and Conditional Acceptance

On Saturday 30th August from 10:30–12:30, SET Social in Peckham will open its doors for a free Breakfast Club, followed by informal play and activities for local children.

In the face of rising living costs, we’ll come together to share food, ideas, and skills for community-building, centering conversations on abolition and collective care.

After sharing food, we will gather for a workshop led in collaboration with Global Majority Copwatch. Global Majority Copwatch is an abolitionist group whose movement centres on keeping each other safe from police and state violence.

This workshop will create space for honest dialogue about belonging, exclusion, and the hidden costs of community. We dream of belonging as refuge, but too often it comes with conditions: conformity, silence, or even erasure. Together we’ll ask:

  • What does it mean to belong?

  • Who gets to decide?

  • How can we cultivate communities that hold difference without exclusion?

Join us for a gathering that invites reflection, connection, and imagination toward communities grounded in authenticity, care, and mutual safety.
