Hello Studio is a space located on Hornsey road in Islington, where local residents can come to practice yoga, pilate and barre but also shop the low-waste products from Fair-Well. Fair-Well is the little van that has been driving around the neighbourhood delivering plastic free food, supporting local residents to reduce food and plastic waste, for the last 3 years. The two projects have been brou
ght together for a reason: Claire, Fair-Well founder and Yoga instructor believes that yoga practice, good food made sustainably, slow consumption, kindness and inclusivity within and between our communities can bring fulfilment and a sense of wellbeing. It can also help us reduce our environmental impact and make the right choices to protect our planet. It is inspired by Frank Ocean’s version of the song Strawberry swings, a childhood lullaby about nostalgia for a beautiful world that is ending, a dying planet that we imperatively need to look after, love and respect fully so that future generation can survive. The purpose of the Hello space is to bring beauty, conviviality and enjoyment to all while helping us enact a deep commitment and purpose towards the environment. Claire, hopes that this space will become a space to share talents, share new sustainable projects with the community and most importantly, be a space where everyone can feel welcomed and appreciated.
