SUMMARY:3Cs Chess Club
DESCRIPTION:3Cs chess club was formed in 1978\, originally to provide local school children in the Oldham area with an opportunity to learn the game. \nThe club draws its members mainly from schools competing in the Oldham Primary Schools’ League\, although every child is welcomed to the club. \nThe name “Children’s Chess Club” is a constant reminder of their priorities – to encourage a far greater youth participation in the game irrespective of skill level.  The club’s members are representative of all Oldham’s diverse backgrounds and cultures with the children happily competing on equal terms\, either as a team representing the club or individually in various tournaments. \nClub nights don’t just consist of those in attendance playing a few games against each other\, nor are they about simply teaching moves and tactics to the four or five various coaching groups taking place into which those with varying levels of skill are organised to ensure they get the correct level of instruction.  The club also believes that if these children know more about the history and traditions of the game then it will add even more to their enjoyment and understanding of it. \nWinners of the national "British Chess Educational Trust" award for inclusive work \nAccessible to all - willing to adjust teaching techniques to accommodate anyone with special needs or disabilities

SUMMARY:Live@TheLibrary: Behind Enemy Lines
DESCRIPTION:Extraordinary women whose courage\, daring\, ingenuity and sacrifice defeated Nazi terror. Songwriter and storyteller Louise Jordan uncovers the lives of inspiring secret agents of WW2. Who were they? How were they selected and trained to commit acts of sabotage\, subversion and silent killing? Did they ultimately evade capture\, torture and execution? \n\n\nBehind Enemy Lines is a solo performance of live music\, original songs\, storytelling\, soundscape\, acting and choreography. Join Louise Jordan as she honours the inspirational lives of some of history’s lesser known women. Having toured across the UK and Europe since 2010\, Louise became focussed on telling hidden women’s stories in 2015 with her one-person touring production ‘No Petticoats Here: extraordinary women of the First World War ’. This was followed by ‘The Hard Way: the true story of working class suffragette Hannah Mitchell ’ in 2018 and ‘Florence; the lesser known life and legacy of Florence Nightingale ’ in 2020 before the Covid-19 pandemic led Louise into the world of street theatre with her ‘Pop Up Pedestal ’. \nA former history teacher and youth worker\, Louise has written songs for UK Parliament and the V&A Museum\, appeared in UK Vogue\, given talks for the National Trust\, University of Oxford and Hampshire Police. The thread that underpins all of Louise’s work is her desire to challenge existing narratives around gender and power.
